for a second pilot. this time they have an assembly member spons kbroring this bill. he says he'd like to see them compensated but he doesn't want them deciding when a second pilot is needed. >> should public safety be left to their zregs? to the discretion of the legislature who is responsible to protect the public. >> if this bill doesn't pass they say the safety of the bay at at risk if this they don't pass a bill requiring there to be two pilots is there a chance to have one on a super vessel requiring two? there is always that chance. >> and they point out they're being paid by wealthy shipping merchants. and the merchants say if they have to pay more there is a good chance the cost will be passed on to consumers. if have you a tip call at me at i team. >> we watch them come and go. interesting to know what is going on behind the scene autos there is a separate culturement a small group of the pilots. it's interesting. >> thank you. >> guilty on all counts. a jury in chicago reached a verdict today

>> wilson: because we're pilots. >> stahl: the air force justified the decision by giving pilots two new items to wear while flying, which were put on display at a recent news briefing. >> general charles lyon: this is a pulse oximeter. >> stahl: major general charles lyon is director of operations at the air force air combat command. >> lyon: the pilots fly with these. they're right on their arm. they look at them and they check them, and if there's any indication of an abnormal oxygen rate, we terminate the flight. >> stahl: the second was a charcoal filter designed to block contaminants the pilots might be breathing, and collect them for analysis. but less than a month after the planes began to fly again, another pilot suffered hypoxia. this was you. you had the first incident, right, in october? >> gordon: yeah, it was actually me and my wingman both had incidents on the same sortie. >> stahl: jeremy's jet was torn apart and analyzed, but there was no smoking gun. pilots were told to keep flying so the air force could gather more data. here's an email that we have seen from one o

the bar pilots want to charge 50% more for ships they believe need 2 pilots.shippers don't want to pay. >> they have absolutely every rate in the world to put as many pilots on board as they think they need to get a ship in. >>reporter: merchant representative jacob says state law already dictates pilots fee base on the size of the ship. the smallest ship coming that the bay are around 4 60 feet and 12,000 tons. bar pilots get paid about 3500 dollars. the newer larger ships are 1,000 feet and longer sometimes more than 100,000 tons. costing more than 20,000 dollars to pilot. 12 0four feet and 140,000 tons costing more than 34,000 dollars. the shipper say the added payment for the larger ships is enough to pay the second pilot. jacob points out each pilot makes the same amount each year no matter how much work they do. >> the individual pilots that are working that shift last year they made first pilot on made 4 50,000 collars. second pilot on 4 50,000 dollars. pilot at home eating a sandwich that week had a made 4 50,000 dollars. that's what they are paid to d

as navy pilot, as a carrier pilot. and believe me, it's a lot harder to land a jet on an aircraft carrier than to land on the moon. that's a piece of cake, that moon deal. but that was part of my life, was the challenge. and here you had yes, a new environment, but you know, for fighter pilots who fly upside down, a lot of the time, zero gravity wasn't that big a deal. now, of course, none of us being -- non-medics had thought about the long-term effects of zero gravity. but the short-term effects of zero gravity were not the challenge to us. the challenge was to be able to fly an unusual craft, and provide good, positive thinking control of that vehicle. >> so unusual a craft that there weren't even any training devices or simulators. that could simulate the kind of things you were going to do. you had to make them, didn't you? >> you know, that's exactly correct. in the early days, we really had what we called part task trainers. instead of simulators. something was built to indicate the control system, something els

chief pilot meant he was the first pilot, and he hired the other two guys. airmail and the airline industry was very small. today most people don't understand where the airline industry came from. it's like an automobile, it's like the telephone. it's always there. it's such an integral part of everyday life, you cannot fathom a world without the telephone, television or the airline system. well, back in 1926 when the post office turned over the delivery of airmail contracts, airmail to contract airmail carriers which was a longwinded way of saying airlines, robert szob was one of the first. in fact, they got the second route, cam number 2 which was from st. louis to chicago, and as dom mentioned, was operated by robertson aircraft corporation. it was founded by the reportson brothers of st. louis, and reportson is one of the predecessors of today's american airlines. so you could say that lindbergh was american airlines' first pilot, and you wouldn't be too far off. there are a lot of other airlines that have merged into american, but that was an important

one pilot said that some pilots are asking not to fly the f-22 because of the safety issue. >> if i knewt the problem was, it would be good. i just haven't found the problem yet. >> reporter: the f-22 has had huge profits for the lockheed martin company. and today at the corporate headquarters, the final of the f-22s were turned over to the air force. >> it's an an improvement to the modization effort. >> reporter: but even if the oxygen flaw is fixed, the plane is still a waste of taxpayer dollar. >> it's not flown a combat mission in afghanistan or iraq or are they planning to do so. >> reporter: senator john mccain said the plane was designed to fight a soviet jet that was never built and has no use now against the enemies that they are fighting. >> there is no purpose, unless you believe that al qaeda is going to have a fleet of aircraft. >> reporter: its critics say the air force can't even give the pilots enough hours in the air to train them. >> it's in the shop all the time. they are lucky if they can fly it every day. >> reporter: is it badly designed or badly produced in. >> bo

they say it was all pilot error. >> there's no question it was pilot error. was it all pilot error?n other words, is there something we can do in the future to make these aircraft safer? and in a boeing you've got a great big stick in front of you like a steering wheel, and i spoke with pilots who call it house full and house empty. it's house full when you're climbing because these are right in your chest, and it's house empty when you're descending. with the little side sticks that are used in military aircraft and in airbus, you don't get that same sense. so although it's there on the instruments and, frankly, the other two pilots should have noticed on the instruments -- megyn: it's automated. >> they had panic going on. this was in pitch darkness, they knew they were falling. megyn: eight seconds to a hard break, i want to talk about to you about the panic on that flight and how they should have known. stay with us. o hard." then there was a moment. when i decided to find a way to keep going. go for olympic gold and go to college too.

the pilots continue to fly and they do not know the cause of what makes the pilot sick and the questionround the plane until they figure the cause. >> that's it in a nutshell, but i went to a fwreefg that the air force put on last week. i have no doubt that they're doing everything to figure it out. it's baffling that it's taken a year and a half. >> what do they suspect? >> well, they're now -- after looking at the oxygen tubes and all that kind of stuff that maybe when you fly that height, that fast, super sonic, there's some physiological change that takes place that interacts with the system of delivering the oxygen. they're going to look at each pilot, look at what his particular health condition was hen got in the plane to see if there's some little pin point thing they can do between the pilot and the system, but they don't know. >> another question. are there more pilots who believe what the two who came forward said? >> oh, yeah. they're just not -- as the pilots tell us, it's a silent majority. >> congressman, why shouldn't they shut down the plains until they know the answer?

we already talked about the youth pilot fare. it was passed contingent on a regional funding at a certain level, about $5 million. seems unlikely at this point that we will get funding at that level, so we will have to adjust accordingly based on whatever we can secure from the region. special events, there's a lot of appetite in the city for special events, and there seem to be more and more demand for them. many of these do not include cost recovery for the operating impact for us on the muni or the parking and traffic site. to the extent there is more of those, that creates budget pressure. most generally, a third of our budget comes from the general fund. so whether it does well or not impact our budget fairly significantly. the state of the economy can impact ridership, as does our own performance. because a quarter of our revenues come from transit fares, that also has a big impact on the budget. just kind of flagging a few issues out there that we may need to confront in one way or another in the two-year cycle. with respe

also they've given the pilots some more instrumentation in the cockpit.eed to do now is fly and try to figure it out as they fly the aircraft. >> this aircraft has -- and the air force has always said a tremendous deurnt value because of its unique category and unique capabilities. does this give a black eye to that, does it undermine the f- 22's value? >> no in my opinion. it's a good question about the deteurns value, but the f-22 retains that strong deterrent value. for one thing, we're not on a wartime footing in the pacific theater, for example. believe me, if there were a need to have the f-22 up in combat, they would go right ahead and do it. these restrictions don't in any way destract >> rebecca, thanks very much. >>> coming up j7pi(ñnnext, wh troops crtsÑ-g;%=in afghanistan say about the war and their afghan allies >>> our next guest is one of the çft4vyÑocrack reporters th sister publication marine corps times. dan lamont is just back from six weeks embedded with marines in afghanistan. while dan was in afghanistan, president obama signed a d

of that plane is a fifty seven year old russian pilot he's a very experienced teens of blue at least forty five different types of aircraft during his career there are also some people from a lot of major airline companies there were on the plane asking jets performance the russian aircraft landed in jakarta today was on its fourth stop during an asian tour this was the second demonstration flight that took place in jakarta today the plane had previously been in pockets than me and more and kazakhstan was set to head up to laos and vietnam next. on a side of this a brand new so hard superjet one hundred was on a bit of a sales pitch journey up and down the region as we're discussing here it's night time now that the weather is bad and we are we getting any responses from officials in jakarta as the possible causes for this disappearance. so the indio indonesian aviation authorities are not ruling out the possibility that this could be a hijacking or that the plane crashed into a nearby mountain as i mentioned it's a very rough mountainous region that they were flying in if the plane

demonstration flights sometimes the pilots or the crews deliberately take the aircraft right to their limits and they do that sometimes when the aircraft is quite close to the ground that's what a demonstration flight is often like sometimes they push the limits just too far and that might have happened quite as you're suggesting here so it's unlikely that it was a technical failure with such a brand new cutting edge a state of the art aircraft and possibly possibly of course speculation at this point the pilots could have been doing some sort of daring maneuver to show off what the aircraft is capable of but how long does it usually take though for a plane to move from demo flights to commercial service is it possible the aircraft was simply not ready to fly at this point. no this aircraft actually this aircraft the aircraft type. is in commercial service at the moment service at the moment it's it's flying fare paying passengers in the russian federation at the moment and it has been doing that. for for about a year now so it's in service this is i think this isn't to say this is a

the surviving pilot has not been identified either.ken to mary washington hospital and the extent of his injuries are still unknowns this morning. >> thank you. we have more details on the plane that was able to land. the plane is a piper pa-28 which is primarily used for flight training and personal use. it is registered in fauquier county and was built in 1965. >> fairfax county police are investigating a shooting involving four of their officers yesterday morning at old mill court in mount vernon for the officers went to a man's apartment tried to serve aboard, charging him with destruction of property. police say after he threatened the officers with a knife, he was shot once in the chest. there is no word on his condition this morning. >> a toddler recovering from severe burns the boy was taken to the park friday and he dashed off into the grass and he tripped and fell on migrate to that had been sitting in the sun all day. he now has second-degree burns on his forearms, his palms, and one leg. his mom wants answers. >> what are t

second, this is a pilot. one of the worries is when you offer something for free, you have to continue to pay for. but it's important we figure out what the benefits of a program like this are. we can collect data on the impact of the young people with public transit and collect data on increased attendance in school. that type of data is important for the city to collect and i'm excited to support this. i strongly support this, and i think we as a city should say this is something we are prioritizing for our young people here in san francisco. supervisor avalos: thank you. supervisor olague: i also want to echo my support for this. it seems to be that education has received many cut from the state level and more and more burden is placed on working family -- placed on working families to make sure they're getting inappropriate education and i think this lens to our commitment to keeping families in san francisco, keeping working families here, and supporting education for all youth. this is not at the exclus

i'm not aware that he is asked for a pool of pilots. but he has, as part of his direction to the air force today, he has requested that they reach out to both the navy and nasa, as they began to continue to troubleshoot the program. >> i grew up in this town. i was raised in northern virginia. my father worked in government. one of the oldest parlor games in washington dc is trying to figure out who's going to be the next in a particular job. i'm simply not going to get involved in that kind of speculation were parlor game. there have been no announcements made on saceur or on other leadership positions in the military. and so you can count me out of your next parlor game, okay? >> it's trivial pursuit, sure you don't want to come? >> trivial pursuit, i confess, i like. that's it. thanks everyone. >> thank you. >> all right. >> you are watching c-span 2 with politics and public affairs weekdays featuring live coverage of the u.s. senate. on weeknights watch key public policy events every weekend the latest nonfiction authors and books o

twenty two pilots spoke out about the faulty system to sixty minutes.well the twenty two pilots the vast majority will be coughing a lot of times other things laying down for bed at night after flying and getting just a spinning room feeling dizziness tumbling vertigo kind of stuff. or even after explaining how they fear for their safety the air force announced a day later and the pilots would be returning now we were skeptical at the time and it does turn out that one of the pilots was issued a letter of reprimand and lost his pilot's license but those two aren't the only ones who spoken out at least twelve pilots reported symptoms of hypoxia since two thousand and eight even a few members of the ground crews have reported similar symptoms now despite all the problems facing the jets both physically and politically they are still scheduled to deploy a few of the twenty two's to u.s. air base in your rant so if the air force just continuing business as usual well sadly impacts that way. i would taking it one more break but up next the commander in chief

that will be key, the conversation between the pilot and air traffic control. that will be the key thing they are looking for. >> in jakarta, thank you so much. you are watching news day on the bbc, live from singapore and london. still to come, welcome to the white house. president obama plays host to david beck and and the l.a. -- beckham and the l.a. galaxy. >> the police service of northern ireland said it kept body parts in more than 60 cases of suspicious deaths between 1960 and 2005. families are concerned that they are only now being informed. two police forces kept body parts and tissue samples of 89 suspicious death cases without notifying relatives. the man who ran a brothel has been sentenced to 15 years in jail. he is 44. he was found guilty of 10 charges relating to sexual offenses against underage girls. he hunted and stock those from troubled ben of backgrounds -- hounded and stalked those from troubled backgrounds. recruitment of new employees is to prepare for the period following the olympics. >> this is newsday on the bbc. >> i am in london.

this is a 22 month pilot that was mentioned. we work hard at developing our operating and capital budgets to accommodate this within the party is and identify the right streams of funds, the right sources of funds, with this project and the others that you will be considering today. we're able to secure that support from the board of directors. this 400,000 is a relatively small part of the overall funding question. you like the requisite level of support from the transportation authority, that all of san francisco is together on this. as the commissioner made reference to, we have a very strong application. these are regional funds that could be used with any purpose within a broad set of constraints. the pilot we are putting forward would serve up to 40 sow's in use in san francisco. -- would serve up to 40,000 yo uth in san francisco. we can try to make transportation accessible for low income youth. we have a strong case. thanks a lot of leadership of commissioner campos and the other commissioners that got us to this very s

pilot.t getting recognition of the plane. >> once the british pilot completes the touch and go, hut takes over. >> i said, okay, he's been flying for an hour and a half, i've got to have a minute on the stick and that's exactly when i put the wheels up after the touch and go. >> but then both pilots are rocked by what happens next. a single bird gets sucked into the jet's engine. >> when you have a landing gear up and no runway in front of you, the option of putting the aircraft back down when you've lost all of its thrust is gone. >> with no thrust from his only engine, hut has only one option. >> when that bird went in the engine, i knew i had to reject and i just was not looking forward to doing it. the ejection system is designed to get your body away from the crash site. you're not expected to get out of the situation unscathed. it's a very violent thing. i know pretty well every situation where two people have ejected out of the same plane, at least one of them is hurt, if not fatally.

isn't going to run into them if you can see them if the mountains are in cloud the pilot still knows they're there and this aircraft has to rain warning system on it using the high terrain is an excuse for an accident in an aircraft as well equipped as that i think is a bit farfetched but just because the demonstration flights have come to grief so often in the past if i were to put my money on this because of this one that's where i'd put it does turn out to be the fact that the crews simply were pushing their luck too far and then. they will regain face. greece's far left leader and that says to paris has failed to form a coalition government and he rejects their status the proposals and was unable to reach a deal with the pro parties this comes after sunday's and then. elections in which no party managed to secure an overall majority if a deal come they agreed greece will be forced to hold a new election next month that raised concerns amongst your leaders that the country may vary now as they agreed us direction matters meanwhile angela merkel is demanding that greece must stick

i was chief pilot for a company out in california. i took a lot of wealthy people back and forth to vegas, at all times of the night. interesting enough men made their decision making and shook hands over deals in the airplane that i was carrying them in going to vegas and back. not necessarily so much coming back but going. i was applying for a professorship in the university of alaska and i used an faa chap's name that i had known and he said, wally, what is this? you be in my office at 9:00 monday morning. oh, okay. i was there and he said you're set up for an interview next monday morning because we want you to be an investigator -- i mean, an inspector for the faa. i said, oh, my goodness. well, that takes an awful lot of education. i don't know if i can -- of course i can do that. caught myself. of course i can do that. i can be the first girl inspector for the faa. and i had my interview, and my first boss was bill glenn. and i answered all their questions, and then i asked hem all about the faa and what they expected of me and

i would say that certainly i understand the pilot fatigue. for this population we have not tested, there is noest paid for integrated improved coordinated care particularly that that bridges the behavioral health, long-term services and supports acute and primary. however, there are important components, diabetes prevention, we expect to those things where they are relevant for those populations in the demonstrations. we have a state-based demonstration opportunity right now and that involves two models, one a capitated model, one is a managed fee for model. we had 26 states interested in pursuing one or both models at this point. some states targeting 2013 implementation date and others targeting 2014 date. i want to emphasize we expect to see care models and care teams and care plans tailored to the different needs of the populations and we've not done as good a job of that in the past as we need to. the needs of someone who is going -- the prototypical 80-year-old medicare patient is very different than someone under 65 whose needs are lon
