Relatives of People Killed when a boeing 737 max plane crashed in ethiopia have told the bbc they want to know why the plane model was not grounded after an earlier crash in indonesia last november. All boeing 737 max aircraft around the world are currently grounded, but only after the second deadly crash. Investigations suggest the same Flight Control system was at fault when an Ethiopian Airlines jet crashed four months later. Speaking exclusively to the bbc, some families claim the aircraft manufacturer put commercial priorities ahead of safety. If wrongdoing is revealed, they want criminal charges. Simon browning reports. Everywhere we look, theres a blank where she should be. Struggling with their loss. Nadia and michaels daughter samya rose was on a boeing plane that crashed in ethiopian. Samyas right here. She was one of 157 people on board. How did those first couple of hours evolve for you both . I learned standing right over there in the laundry room. I it was 3 00am in the morning, and ijust started physically shaking, like, icouldnt stop my body from shaking. And then ijust thought, i cant tell the other people in the house. It was the second identical boeing jet to crash in five months. Initial reports say they happened for the same reason a faulty Flight Control system. The 737 max has been grounded ever since. Critics say the development and launch of the jets was rushed, and that boeing cut corners at the expense of safety. Definitely my daughter died for the profit of boeing, and i dont want anyone else to die for that reason. I want these planes to be safe, and invest in the company, and the hardware and the infrastructure, to make our Aviation Systems safe. Nadia and michael want to know why their daughter died, and their fight has taken them to the top of the american government. They are now representing families from across north america. When et302 crashed, there were passengers from more than 30 countries on board. The highest proportion of those were from kenya, because the flight was bound for nairobi. But the second highest amount were from here in canada, and families in toronto are starting to want answers as to why their loved ones were killed. Well, i lost my wife, carol, my three children, ryan, kelly and ruby, and i also lost my mum in law. I feel so lonely. I look at people, i see them with their children, playing outside, and i know i cannot hug my children. Paul njoroge lost his entire family. He believes they would still be alive if boeing had grounded the planes earlier. The crash of Ethiopian Airlines flight 302 was preventable. But these individuals knew that they will not be held criminally liable, they will not face years in prison. But, if they knew that they would face years in prison, then they would have grounded those planes in november. We asked boeing for an interview, and they declined. In a statement, they said but, for the families, life is changed forever. Their resolve now finding the truth. Simon browning, bbc news, in toronto. President trump has staged his own very individual, very militarised Independence Day parade in washington, dc. There were tanks on the streets and military flypasts. He is called it salute to america, focusing, he insists, on patriotism rather than politics. His opponents see it as a made for tv campaign event. Thousands gathered to watch his speech on big screens, with protesters nearby. 0ur washington correspondent Chris Buckler was amongst the crowds. To some extent, the celebrations continue. But the militaristic element of this whole event, the element that donald trump was at the centre of, has now come to a close, and people can now reflect on the speech that he made. The white house had promised that his focus would be on patriotism, not politics, and actually, if you listened to the speech, that was true. It was a much more measured speech than the addresses that were used to from President Trump in the likes of rallies. For example, he referenced the Civil Rights Movement in the us. He referenced Martin Luther king, who also spoke here at the lincoln memorial, with his i have a dream speech. And President Trump did do his best to reflect all elements of america, as well as putting the real focus on each of the different branches of the us military. There were flyovers, there were tanks which sat alongside his podium here at lincoln memorial. But beyond that, there was a genuine attempt, i suppose, to reach out and try to say that, as one country, people should be able to celebrate on ajuly. At the same time, when you talk to some of the crowd who have gathered here, its clear that most of them were donald trump supporters, and perhaps others were on the other end of the national mall, where that capitol concert is taking place, just in the shadow of the capitol building. Lets brief you on some of the other stories making the news the military council governing sudan has agreed to take part in a power sharing Transitional Administration with protest leaders and lead the country towards elections.
