US Military Pivots to the Pacific
Hello, and welcome to As It Is from Learning English!
Im Jim Tedder in Washington.
United States officials recently fined Asiana Airlines $500,000 for failing to help victims of a plane crash last year. Three people died and more than 180 were injured when the plane hit a seawall while landing in San Francisco, California. US officials say Asiana failed to act quickly to assist the families of passengers involved in the crash. An earlier investigation found the communications among the planes crew members may have been an issue.
Why would you have two pilots in the airplane if they arent going to talk to each other?
We will hear more about that later in the program. And we report on changes the South Korean airline is making in its training for pilots.
But first, we have a progress report on President Barack Obamas plan to increase the US militarys presence in East Asia and the Pacific. Some officials have described the move as a pivot to the Asia-Pacific area.
We have to do better at being able to communicate with each other in a way that allows us to not lead to miscalculation that wont be productive in the security environment.
We are talking about pivots and pilots today on As It Is from Learning English.
