8:02 am
exactly how soon that caused this crash is still didn't really get its infancy where the black books recorders have been recovered from the sites of the. crash where this is triple of to you one three for fly a plane had to crash land on a highway about a kilometer away from the intended destination of the airport a proposal was in the northwest of russia now what we do know is that as the plane came down it hit the tops of trees it took out power cables which could power the lights to the airport and plunge the runway and darkness will have to wait until the investigation is continued a little further to find out if past blackouts on the runway was the deciding factor in the crash now investigators are looking into this all drilling out any possibility at the minute they have said this pilot error or or a bad weather or combination of the two may have been the cause of its.
8:03 am
distribution is to convince the gauges continue their work at the site of the tragedy to bring their spread across a three hundred meter radius of flight recorder has already been found. recordings are being on a list forensic analysis is being carried out looking into several versions of what caused the tragedy these include the human factor such as an air of the crew on the ground services severe weather conditions technical failure and several other potential causes image he's good to see. over forty four people lost their lives in this tragedy and their relatives and friends have begun gathering at the end of airport just behind me where the flight originated from there they've been receiving grief counseling from the emergencies ministry eight people though managed to survive this horrific plane crash they survived through the genuine heroism of people who arrived on the scene and pulled them out of the wreckage among those people who are who have been pulled out of that wreckage are nine year
8:04 am
old boy his fourteen year old sister and their mother now six of those eight who were in. survived this plane crash apparently on my way to moscow up to receive further treatment however two of those who were pulled from that wreckage would seem to be in too much of a critical condition to travel their remaining in the northwest of russia where they come doctors are continuing to provide them with medical treatment now russia had a company that operated this flight has suspended its services until the investigation has been complete no more of their planes will be taking off this is a budget airline that was charging around one hundred dollars for the flight to pick out of the patrols a voice from moscow flying regularly almost every day from from the russian capital up to the northwest of the country their plates their planes will be grounded until its investigation is complete. right now peter oliver live from moscow thanks for that update. well let's cross live to christy gates he's an aviation expert and
8:05 am
principal at yates consulting joining us from london by skype. mr yates from your point of view what do you think went wrong with this flight you know well i think. we're looking to possibilities that nobody's been talking about for the moment we know that the weather was extremely bad the aircraft was approaching too for this particular have course. you know we have to also true any errors made by the pilot the time of this incident. is dangerous making the land or in taking off those awful lot of things to do and it just takes one simple mistake. to be routing mandating into something that could potentially be so much was. as little as we know tell us do you think there's anything that could have been done to prevent something like this. not
8:06 am
really you know it very much depends on what the cockpit voice recorder tells us from doing so the flight data recorder we know that both of those devices will be. retrieved and now they're going back to moscow for analysis we have to wait and see what they say they tell us. you know this will sorts of factors here that come into this with this this story. is whether they're getting the right sort of mission from the ground controllers that we have in question with them getting the right sort of weather information and thought about some of the key points. and also whether they would be mounted i currently by radio with the controller and we're keeping a track on the aircraft hunts so on because of course around airports we know where the various obstacles are free to have an impact on the safety of
8:07 am
a mandatory takeoff so provided they had all of that information in to them that this should have been a routine landing. investigators are looking into pilot error as the likely cause in general how do you judge the skills of russian pilots. it's really difficult to say whether it's pilot error or otherwise some sort of moments ago we have to wait and so. it's very easy to blame. the pilots rather than the crofter so for rather than some other issue somewhere along the line. of the statements i made the before you post and such like after an incident such as blaming the pilots were not necessarily the case for which the pilots so i can let's wait and see those take and we more information from the crisis unfolding as we've right cool pieces of equipment that the flight data recorder and
8:08 am
the co paid for this recorder is one point i would make of that is that when i'm but in two thousand and seven. the russian transport minister called for a new one thirty four. one through four to be grounded completely because he felt the. absolutely. all right aviation expert chris yates on the line with us from manchester thank you very much for your analysis welcome. well we can now cross live to our correspondent tusshar silly us he's been traveling all day to pepper's of what's going to finally reach there and it's not about the site of the crash i understand . i test out from your point of view where you are what what's happening out there at the site if you are in fact there i think you are. yes we are that's right if you can see behind me there are emergency services there
8:09 am
are the. firefighters are still here we saw parts of the plane still being lifted out of this place and if you can see the road behind you we're told that the plane had actually crashed perpendicular to this road because it was on the way to the airport which is to my left if you can see so it it narrowly missed a few of the houses here came dangerously close you can see houses right by the road and in fact according to initial investigations only a parked car was damaged on the road so that was quite a miracle right there but it did happen before midnight last night on monday and they're still right now are trying to assess the damage right here they picked up the black box of the first on the scene last night were witnesses those a living around here based on the initial findings still they have to be called the black box initial findings was that the plane came descended way too quickly before it was supposed to do so now they still don't know exactly why it was about two hundred meters off course according to investigations and it had hit
8:10 am
a high power voltage that had cut off the electricity on the runway and it took a few seconds before the backup generator was able to restore the lights and therefore it had caused difficulty for the pilot and also bad weather conditions were blamed as the cost of the crash so because of that actually the locals here are telling us right now that they still do not have electricity there still some of them coming here checking out to find out exactly what happened what's still out on the scene although some of the road a big part of the road is currently blocked so again first on the seat where witnesses were let's hear what they had experienced at the moment of the crash. wreckage long as you can relieve one. launch event in mind in which one just see it was taller sure then there was a man of the bills she was the most knowledgeable me and threw her down from the wreckage in the middle of the grounds are not a man reached dump essentially. everything sounds actually taking everything.
8:11 am
everything was fine. well there you have it so they were here trying to save as many people as they can now it has to be said that this particular a tuple level one three four model does have quite a bad track record this is actually the twenty eight crash recorded this plane has been in service for about thirteen years now although it has because of the track record there's a quite a negative blame put it put on the actual model itself but according to some of the experts a lot of the accidents that have happened in the past were due to a combination of factors of course a most common is human error and last night a bad weather conditions compounded that situation let's hear what some of the analysts the experts say on this new car going in with which i don't think anything would go wrong with the plane itself in future years of operation
8:12 am
that you pull of one three four has proved to be extremely reliable problems are going to work in previous catastrophes human error was always to blame and once again is true here that the pilot should have made a second to approach this is exactly what happened to the polish presidential airplane floor so that's before the test i know you've just arrived in peppers i'm going to put have you heard anything on bridge or been able to see anything or the relatives of those involved in this tragedy. well the relatives of those on the plane as we heard a lot of them are going to be flying from moscow arriving here tomorrow now there have been compensation to the airliner that had carried that was operating the plane that had crashed said that they would compensate the families of those that had died as well as those that had survived eight survivors currently in hospital still being treated for burns the shock of multiple injuries now they said that they will be paid two million rubles that's about seventy one thousand dollars also
8:13 am
about five hundred thousand rubles to the survivors and also here in the republic of korea in that that was a void it's is you know have declared a day of mourning actually three days of mourning from today up to the what is six all flags will be flying at half mast and again they are still working moscow officials are going to be working with local officials here to give as much support as they can to the survivors especially as well as the a grieving of family members so they will be arriving tomorrow here at the republic of korea right our two sons are silly alive in pepin's are forced out because of that plane crash thanks for that. we of course will be covering this plane crash and bring you more on this developing story throughout the day here on our t.v. it's coming up to fourteen minutes past the hour more stories coming your way including the price of health care. recently we can deal with this disease and it's become something that is simply unreal but only

were killed by their bronze the nine people killed in sunday's bombing of a residential building in tripoli remain the only sit in casualties i can all it's by the alliance which claimed a mistake if you weapons technical failure a former pentagon official says the only thing clear in nato campaign is the mounting casualty toll and damage it's inflicting on the even people they try to achieve a certain level of humanitarian effort and initially but the protracted bombing is now increasingly hitting civilian targets and it's creating a very negative reaction i think it does raise the question of what is nato's role continued role going to be there as discontented nato's actions and crazies are the voices become more and more about to the voices of the libyan people was and it seems that the more anger they feel about nato the more they support. the belief that that's what this is the second stage
