All right back to our story about the investigation in the plane crash from last july. A number of issues were brought up like was the pilot trained to land. There are other issues as well. We took a look and this is what we found . Reporter its been 5 months since the crash at the airport and there has been a lot of discussion about what can improve. Little has changed. The Guidance System that was turned off on the run way is back on now but cold be turned off again in part because the federal avenue said it wasnt needed. The alert system broke. It got to a few folks. We fell back on our phone system and got people out here within 40 minutes. Reporter they are still shopping for a new system. Another issue was poor communication.

A new study found that poverty has been stuck at 5 of population for about 4 decades. Those numbers come at no surprise to those working at the food banks. When you are born in a family with few resources and little education getting out of that situation is really low. The Program Launch in the 60s kept poverty from getting worse. Take away safety net programs like food stamps they said the poverty rate would be higher today at 29 then 1967 when it stood at 17 27 . While increasing capitalism that created an under class in the u. S. They have a sane that said the only sure thing is death, taxes and the fact that any government fro gram program will grow.

Well look at the 7 day forecast in a few minutes. We are taking a look at the shift of in Public Opinion about unions. Commute commuters are sick of being stuck in the bart strikes. Reporter bart trains are rolling but another round of contract drama continues. They want a family leave provision which bart said shouldnt have been added to the contract. When you make a mistake your acknowledge your mistake. Reporter things are heating up for ac transit. Union members are upset about changes of bus routes. A judge denied the provision. The threat of a possible strike will hurt the public. A lot of money will be lost for people who cant get to work. Up in sacramento want to ban strikes by transit workers. They are like police and fire they are too important. They want the union to find another way to be able to fix the contract. The polls say 45 of voters believe unions do more harm then good. 52 believe Public Workers should not be allow to strike. 41 said they should have that right. This happen after the second bart strike. Bart said they are not going on strike but what about the ac transit deal. They are coming off the end of a cooling off period until barts contract was finished. I spoke with some one at ac transit and they said talks are not going well there either. Another strike i believe could be a tipping point. The senator rating is at a low point. This is lower then the Approval Rating for boxer. Boxers rating went up. What do you think is up with that. Polls are snapshots. Right now the federal government is not poplar. I would like to point out the u. S. Senator has gone through a lot and her numbers have gone up and down.

We have a slightly hazy shot of the bridge out there. Its chilly out there but we will be warming up by 1 00 today. It will be 64 degrees sunny and mild. The rate of inaccuracies on the Health Care Website are declining. Many of peoples applications have not been sent to insurance companies. Its amazing how many technical issues they had with the websites. In california we heard that the telephone lines have been down. They are still working on those flit glitches. The plane crash that happened july 16 july 16th have brought out many issues. Joining me from san jose is a retired pie pilot. Pilot. Good morning. If the pilot felt so stressful about landing shouldnt he have used the gears. The training pilot should have been the pilot in command and been the one recognizing the aircraft speed was correct. I cant image this happening on an u. S. Car carrier. I have never flew when a pie an pilot that didnt have his hands on the gear. Reporter one question in the wake of this accident is what are the rules. Gov governing pilots entering the u. S. Do we know who has the experience to be doing the job . Well its the faas responsibility to make sure they are. They did have problem pref usually. Before and had boeings people go over and try to train them. There should be no problem in the visual approach. The average american pilot loves to fly the visual approach. I can make a better landing then you. You use your hand and mind looking out the window. American pilot all learned in small planes. Flying around and learning how to stall and turn and make landings looking out the window. They start out in a small aircraft and go up to a bigger aircraft. The korean pilots dont have this. If i would set up a training rough gram program for them i would take small planes over and teach them how tofully. I understand its not just korean that dont have the experience in their pilot as we do in america. Have yo heard any thing from the faa to require foreign pilot be more versed in visual landing before they arrive in the u. S. No i havent. I can only assume that the inspectors are looking at their airlines and making sure they have add good training. Los training. Las angeles stopped them a long time ago. They are not allowed to make visual approaches there or here. There is not much danger in a visual approach. Its the preferred way for most pilots. I will ask you to go to the area of politics from what you are hearing out of the hearing right now is there any thing that will minimize or prevent future accident like this from happening or will it stay the same . Well as far as the airport and the equipment it will stay the same. What has to happen is the airline needs to have more training in the visual approaches. They have the culture problem of not addressing issues when they see something wrong. We had a problem before when the captain was god and wouldnt listen to crews. The captain must listen to the other two officers. Can copilot and engineer. We have solved this problem were we work as a team and not a captain and the rest of the crew. Thank you for your time this morning and thanks for the connection as well. Thank you very much. Modern technology sneaking up. The skies are hazy and its another spare the air day. Air quality not so great today. Conditions upper 30s and 40s. It will get up into the 60s all around the bay area. 62 in napa. Well continue warming and start cooling by wednesday.
