but they found out like 15, 20 minutes later, that it was an airliner. please look for survivors, or aircraft wreckage. and so that is when it was like what? airliner missing, we did not shoot an airliner, we shot tomcats, i thought. there was a lot of soul—searching, disbelief. that is not supposed to happen, that is not what we're here do. 290 civilians passed away on flights 655 and of those 290, 66 for children. i felt so bad for the families. —— that lost their loved ones, and sometimes you are part of history and you love it, sometimes you're part of history and you hate it. this isjust one of those things we just wish it did not happen, but i was there. remembering the iranian airliner tragedy. 0ur next story takes us to the balkans. in1988, next story takes us to the balkans. in 1988, albury band are centuries old form of local entertainment, where a captive chained bears were forced to dance to music. following the band, the retired and often traumatised bears needed a place to go and one man, dr amir khalil, came to the rescue. in1998, it in 199

but this plane won't be taking off the flight to nowhere is an airline with a difference dreaming up with all the honor it offers a passenger has a taste of flying without ever leaving the ground. many schoolchildren here up or their families cannot afford a real ticket the passengers are treated to a full in-flight experience they receive boarding cards safety briefings. even refreshments of loved and board it's an eye opening experience that upset planes in the sky i used to think they were really small but now i know they actually huge. i now want to fly to london i've heard that a beautiful things to see a city. some lucky passengers even get to visit the cockpit. the man behind the project is behind the trunk gupta a retired aircraft engineer he sold his land and bought the decommissioned airbus a three hundred back in two thousand and three for six hundred thousand rupees that's about seven thousand euros a real bargain he charges people according to what they can afford as little as a few little cents or even nothing at all for the very poor. i belong to a very small business.

david: is it possible somebody could be sitting next to somebody else on an airline and he or she paid price than the person sitting right next to him? oscar: nobody talks about that, but that has been an issue forever. so usually, i don't usually ask the person sitting next to me, how much did you pay for that ticket? it is an issue, but not a significant one. david: i assume you are not flying private anymore? oscar: no, you have to eat what you cook. [laughter] oscar: i am very comfortable. david: do you have any problems getting a seat or anything? [laughter] oscar: we booked through the normal channels. it is positive space. meaning, i will book a flight, and if it is booked, i will find another flight. david: can you be on your airline and not have people not come up and tell you what to do better? oscar: that is not an easy task anymore. you are fairly recognized. so the further back you go, the less you are recognized. in the front of the cabin, it is almost impossible. people do want to chat and provide input and feedback on many things. intrusive? yes. i have -- i will put my

they say a drone hitting an airline is similar to an airstrike drone hitting an airline is similar to.. there has never been an incident of a major airline receiving major damage as a result of a drone. at least at this point serious injuries have been avoided. have airlines and airports fallen asleep. these two sophisticated security systems are not in place so we are all vulnerable? i think there has been a rising concern on a part of a number of authorities over the last year. us authorities have banned drones in military bases, national parks and you can get reactors. in october they passed legislation giving the authorities the legal right to shoot down a dangerous drone. that is a technology they still need to fully develop. i think that because they are politically small, authorities are politically small, authorities are not taken them as seriously as other threats. but today's incident certainly suggest that it could have been far worse. that is a concern, the prospect of weaponised in drones eventually. we do send sympathy to eve ryo ne eventually. we do send sympathy to eve

. >> an airline is going to weigh your bag first, partly for safety, but also to see if you owe them>> good morning. let's go back to the money first. airlines raked in $4.5i billion in baggage fees last year. they are on track to collect even more this year. often airlines charge another feed if your bag exceeds 50 or 70 pounds, but how reliable are their scales. luckily local inspectors check them from time to time. they hauling in weights to make sure the readout is accurate. how did the big three bay-area airports? all 65 were ruled acreal at oakland. at hohn so say they found just one that failed, it was actually underweighing bags. but sfo, they looked at 333 scales and found 18 that were not accurate. five were underweighing bags, 13 were overweighing them. how do you as the everyday travel ser know when scales to avoid. actually they get the red tag there. they're supposed to be taken out of service for repair. a blue tack is taped onto scales. the airlines can still use them,% you supposed to fix them. if you see a red tag scale, let the local weights and measures folks know

and there was this attack against an airline in 2017 at the point is they never really went away.f al-anda, as you say. and they mention drones, plotting to use drones and blow up key targets. so we can see drones having wider repercussions. the other element of this is president trump withdrawing the us troops from syria. experts are saying that will be another breeding ground for terrorists. if there are fewer us troops to crack down on potential terrorists, they will have the opportunity to fester and form new groups to attack us in the west, which is also extremely alarming. let's go to brexit, never far from our thoughts. i thought you would never ask! even at christmas. all right, james. calm down. i know you are excited about brexit. jeremy corbyn facing a furious labour backlash over brexit support. jeremy corbyn, the man who can do no right in my eyes. he is like a striker who has got an open goal and the ball comes towards him and he not only misses the ball, he pulls over flat on his face. this is one of the worst governments i can ever remember. labour should be 20 poi

they can't deliver to schedule which is ironic in an airline industry that means the management have got to find a way to boost production rapidly in the short-term, two to three years, and building production facilities and getting things through processes takes time >> and in boeing, we have just seen, has decided not to invest in production capacity, not to invest in its own business but in fact has had to boost its dividend by 20%, and its buy back program is this the best use of cash for boeing >> it probably is. they're in a strong position at the moment strategically for them as a corporation, it probably makes great sense and they are delivering to schedule they have a full suite of autobus through 2025, 7,000 aircraft on order. most businesses would love to have an order book like that at this time of year. >> thank you very much, john grant, partner at midas aviation for joining us today >>> now, ahost of flights remain grounded at london's gatwick airport with officials saying the delay is caused by drone activity i've seen some of the photos from that. it looks miserable
