with other city and regional agencies we are working very closely with the mayor's office and abag and atc and management agencies, to insure that this is a program that can be smoothly implemented and administratively not too difficult to try to combine the formal housing with transportation programs, to meet the state's greenhouse gas emissions targets. the hopeful sign is that they have delayed a meeting to consider the guidelines, to revise those, in response to the public input, and so that that meeting will happen in january, and we will be able to report back next year to see how that shakes out. the other state wide issue and regional issue that we have been working hard on is the cal train electrickfiation program and there is progress and we want to appreciate chair kim who heads the transbay and the joint power board meetings as well as the land use committee of the board of supervisors will be holding hears on this toing. and the program, at the top priority for us as well as for many of the partners in the region and there is a critical, assessment choice before the jpb on the

some preliminary radar reports that the airplane initiated a climb without telling air traffic control atc later issued a directive they could i am klee. by that time airasia was already climbing through 36,000 feet. he gained about four thousand feet in altitude. if the radar indications from the air traffic control screens are collect it slowed 100 knotts in speed putting dangerously slow at that altitude and weather conditions. looks like debris is found close to where the last radar signal was found which indicates to me that the airplane did not, fingerprints have its engines flame out and glide 90 or 100 miles which it would have been capable. it looked like it came down. the fact they're finding i don't want to being grisly, the bodies are fairly intact, that leads me to believe not as high impact as others. what that would generally mean perhaps, perhaps they were in a stall condition. jon: yeah. it is, well answers that will come from the blacks boxes no doubt. kathleen bangs thanks for your expertise. >> thank you. >> well the mayor of new york city is trying to patch things up w

they never acknowledged that radio call from atc to initiate a climb. so what that leads me to believe in addition to a preliminary radar image from air traffic control that shows the aircraft had slowed down about 100 to 120 knots indicates to me possibly that aircraft was stuck in some very, very bad turbulence and perhaps in a strong updraft right before it lost control. >> again, based on your experience as a fighter pilot, do you think human error here had more to do with maybe the weather's considering. they had about 100 miles or so to get around this storm before then calling for access to a higher elevation? >> well, he's an airline pilot so he's going to want to get to where he's going, right? i'm not -- i'm not too concerned about that. it's easy to second guess this guy. yeah, he probably should have turned around and come back, but this is a guy that's done this several hundred times at least. short flight fairly common. so i don't really see that as being an issue. >> sal, what are the next steps here? what are we going to find? are they g

you recall what happened in chicago when we had that fire at the atc center just a couple of months agoen chicago being one of the busiest airports in the world was shut down. the air traffic controller center shut down and how they literally created a whole around chicago in which no flights were going into or out of and everything was diverting around chicago. that's what is happening in london. the busiest airport space and air space in europe. it's going to be a mess. my colleague can probably talk more about this. they had major computer problems since going online. >> that's right. they have problems they thought they managed to get over most of the issues. itting loose like it's a power outage. after covering it over many years it's unclear what the cause is. they'll try to figure it out for themselves. if what you're reporting there is right just in simple math tells me it means they're expecting it to continue for the next three hours. it's going to be hugely disruptive. the amount of aircraft that fly in and out of heathrow. i'm trying to finds the details of what those number

effectively a piece of equipment in the aircraft that sends it to the radar on the ground and allows atc to look at where the aircraft is with the individual identification code and it can see what altitude these aircraft are at. so if there is decline or descent in altitude or incline, any air traffic agency following them will be able to see what altitude they are at. there's a lot of precursors to you know a final extreme event. >> yeah. >> you know it's very interesting, alex but the pilot's primary responsibility is to maintain control of the aircraft. first and foremost. so if they run into an extreme emergency in which they inadvertently penetrated a thunderstorm -- and i've had that experience myself many many years ago -- is to maintain control and air traffic was trying to reach us we were struggling to maintain control of the aircraft the co-pilot was controlling the power quadrant, i was following the aircraft. we were busy. we had no time to speak with them. >> you make a very good point. very quickly? >> aviate and communicate. that's whatever pilot is taught. >> gentlemen,
