Hello. I'm Susie Fowler`Watt. Cambridge Airport denies passenger

safety has been put at risk after the BBC

:00:17.:00:20.

raising issues with air traffic control and the state of thd runway.

:00:21.:00:23.

The documents detail between senior managers at the

:00:24.:00:26.

airport. Jozef Hall reports. Passengers boarding the first

CityJet flight last airline, part of the expanshon

:00:29.:00:35.

plans. Behind the smiles, a different story. We found the former

:00:36.:00:48.

airport worker who did not want to be identified. I cannot recommend

:00:49.:00:54.

and do not recommend friends or people I know flying out of airpot,

:00:55.:00:58.

particularly during summer months. It is because of safety. It is

:00:59.:01:00.

because of the traffic controllers. Many use it each year, from light

:01:01.:01:05.

aircraft to Jets and military aircraft like this one. Jets even

:01:06.:01:13.

deliver horses to nearby racecourses. What is the problem?

until last May. There are discussions of chronic short

:01:30.:01:33.

staffing, air traffic controllers bending the rules, breaches of

:01:34.:01:36.

regulations extending their hours and using unqualified staff.

:01:37.:01:40.

flights to Europe put added pressure on the control tower. Everyone

:01:41.:01:44.

feeling and procedures are pretty dodgy. A manager complains of

:01:45.:01:51.

underfunding since year dot. Radar fail frequently. We have just taken

:01:52.:01:55.

off from Cambridge airport. Already they are over the city centre. We

:01:56.:02:01.

are now at 2000 feet, uncontrolled your space. `` airspace. We do not

:02:02.:02:10.

need to let anyone know we are need to let anyone know we `re here,

from its parking spot. It had debris from its parking spot. It h`d debris

stuck to one of its wheels. The civil aviation authority has known

:02:37.:02:41.

about the issues for years `lthough the airport has

:02:42.:02:45.

inspections. We took our report to an independent aviation

:02:46.:02:51.

that the year port will cut the cost of operations by

:02:58.:03:05.

Cambridge Airport told us it has recruited three extra air traffic

:03:06.:03:08.

controllers and will refurbhsh the runway next year.

:03:09.:03:12.

utterly refute the implied allegations that safety has been

Safety, above all, is of paramount importance." Basildon Hospital has

been taken out of special measures by the health regulator Monhtor It

:03:20.:03:23.

by the health regulator Monitor. It was one of a group of hospitals to

:03:24.:03:28.

be named and shamed last year after concerns over its death rates. Nikki

Fox is there now. If this hospital was a patient it would be out of

treatment. These hospitals usually take three years to come out of

:03:44.:03:49.

special measures. Basildon has done it in less than one. Part of its

:03:50.:03:55.

success have been dying to hts partnership with the Royal free

:03:56.:04:00.

Hospital which we have been told is set to continue. `` down to its

:04:19.:04:23.

They have almost double the number of beds and judged to be

:04:24.:04:27.

outstanding. There have been other improvements. Seven of our dight

:04:28.:04:33.

services have been rated good or outstanding. I think staff here are

:04:34.:04:38.

very confident they can continue to build on the good work they have

:04:39.:04:43.

done. The hospital has had a difficult past. There have been high

:04:44.:04:49.

mortality rates. It was one of 1 placed in special measures. More

:04:50.:04:57.

people than expected died in seven years. There were deaths from

:04:58.:05:02.

legionnaires disease but it has recruited 700 nurses who have been

:05:03.:05:08.

instrumental in raising dander. `` standards. We are happy with the

:05:09.:05:17.

increase in budget, we need that kept up so the patient we shall to

and will be carrying out further checks over the coming months. The

:05:32.:05:36.

other hospital in this region placed in special measures was Colchester,

:05:37.:05:42.

that happened in November after concerns were raised about cancer

:05:43.:05:48.

patients. The detailed action plan has been implemented to improve

:05:49.:05:56.

things. Separately, there is an ongoing investigation into Cancer

waiting times being mass hatched. Essex Police also say`macro there

:06:05.:06:11.

investigations are ongoing. A body has been found in the sea off

:06:12.:06:16.

Felixstowe. It is believed to be the body of a woman in a yacht. Our

:07:33.:07:45.

of the year. Warm for some, but thundery for others. This line of

:07:46.:07:49.

really intense thunderstorms moved through. Large hail and gusty winds

:07:50.:07:54.

and rain as well. That moved away and now we look towards the south

:07:55.:07:58.

and you can see the rain moving northwards. So let's look at the
