:01:48. > :02:04.liberation from German occupation. Pilots have been advised to have a

:02:05. > :02:08.plan B before flying near the Channel Islands in fog. It follows

:02:09. > :02:12.an inquiry into the deaths of a businessman and his wife in a light

:02:13. > :02:15.aircraft off Jersey's west coast last year. The investigation found

:02:16. > :02:20.that the pilot became disorhentated in fog and then crashed, possibly

:02:21. > :02:23.after a stall. A full`scale air`and`sea search was launched when

:02:24. > :02:25.a light aircraft ditched into the sea off the coast of St Ouen last

:02:26. > :02:32.year. Businessman Carl Whiteley and his

:02:33. > :02:37.wife Kathryn were the two passengers wife Kathryn were the two p`ssengers

:02:38. > :02:40.onboard. They were flying from Dinan in France to Jersey Airport when

:02:41. > :02:43.they hit this thick blanket of fog sitting over the surrounding sea

:02:44. > :02:48.area, causing the private ahrcraft to crash, killing them both. News of

:02:49. > :02:54.their deaths shocked neighbours at their home in Derbyshire. For

:03:01. > :03:02.news, sad for the family, the daughter lives close by as well.

:03:03. > :03:05.Today, an aircraft investigation report revealed the aircraft was

:03:06. > :03:08.slightly left of the runway centreline. As it commenced a

:03:09. > :03:09.descent and a left turn, Mr Whiteley transmitted a panicked mess`ge

:03:10. > :03:09.descent and a left turn, Mr Whiteley transmitted a panicked message to

:03:10. > :03:12.transmitted a panicked mess`ge to the Jersey control tower saying,

:03:13. > :03:17.sorry, I've completely gone the wrong way round there. The

:03:18. > :03:18.aircraft's altitude increasdd rapidly to 600 feet before it

:03:19. > :03:24.rapidly to 600 feet before ht descended and disappeared from the

:03:25. > :03:28.radar. The report concluded, the accident was probably as a result of

:03:29. > :03:31.the pilot's attempt to recover to normal flight following a stall or

:03:32. > :03:34.significant loss of airspeed at a low height after a rapid climb

:03:35. > :03:42.manoeuvre, having become disoriented during the approach in fog.

:03:43. > :03:47.The man in charge of aviation safety regulations in the Channel Hslands

:03:48. > :03:57.advises pilots to have a back`up plan when flying in fog. If you

:03:58. > :04:01.think the weather may not bd good enough at your destination, have

:04:02. > :04:05.somewhere else to go that you are sure will be fit. When it is foggy,

:04:06. > :04:11.it can come in quite quickly, and it it can come in quite quickly, and it

:04:12. > :04:15.can also be patchy. If you have got enough fuel to hold for a lhttle

:04:16. > :04:16.while, perhaps that is another alternative. Although a memorial

:04:17. > :04:18.service was held for the cotple service was held for the cotple

:04:19. > :04:20.this report may answer any questions this report may answer any questions

:04:24. > :04:28.their family and friends may still have had following this fat`l crash.

:04:29. > :04:33.Meanwhile, fog and low cloud have been causing extensive disrtption at

:04:34. > :04:34.Guernsey Airport today. Flybe in particular is affected, bec`use

:04:35. > :04:34.Guernsey Airport today. Flybe in particular is affected, because the

:04:35. > :04:37.particular is affected, bec`use the airline has increased its landing

:04:38. > :04:41.decision and visibility heights due to the terrain at the airport.

:04:42. > :04:42.Airport bosses say it's the airline's own specific safety code

:04:43. > :04:49.and has nothing to do with any and has nothing to do with any

:04:50. > :04:54.issues with the airport. Given the nature of the weather

:04:55. > :04:57.patterns, it is either all or nothing in terms of fog, so the

:04:58. > :05:01.times at which this will impact will be relatively rare and few and far

:05:02. > :05:03.be relatively rare and few `nd far between.

:05:04. > :05:06.Youngsters in Jersey who've been in care will be better supported after

:05:07. > :05:10.a local man donated a six`figure sum to Barnado's. Charity bosses have

:05:11. > :05:13.been in the island this week, recruiting two project workers to

:05:14. > :05:18.help care leavers find homes, jobs and education. They'll work with the

:05:19. > :05:20.States to identify vulnerable 16 to 25`year`olds. Barnado's says it s to

:05:21. > :05:27.25`year`olds. Barnado's says it's to complement services already in the

:05:28. > :05:30.island. You can never do enough for care

:05:31. > :05:31.leavers, so Barnardos are keen to leavers, so Barnardos are kden to

:05:32. > :05:35.add to the work that the states leavers, so Barnardos are keen to

:05:36. > :05:42.add to the work that the states do, to give as much support as possible.

:05:43. > :05:44.You are watching the BBC, still ahead in Spotlight...

:05:45. > :05:46.Dancing in the street, thousands brave the wet weather to celebrate

:05:47. > :05:56.Flora Day in Helston. Stay tuned for that here on the

:05:57. > :06:00.programme. A blind lemur has been given his

:06:01. > :06:03.sight back here in Jersey. Sam the red`fronted brown lemur had

:06:04. > :06:06.cataracts removed from both his eyes in a two`hour operation at Durrell

:06:07. > :06:08.Wildlife Park. It's the first time such an operation has been carried

:06:09. > :06:29.out on a member of the lemur family. We have not got that report at the

:06:30. > :06:30.moment, we will try to come back to it later.

:06:31. > :06:38.It maybe tomorrow that Jersdy and It maybe tomorrow that Jersey and

:06:39. > :06:38.Guernsey mark liberation day, schoolchildren learned the

:06:42. > :06:57.the older generation had 30 dance. A younger generation learning about

:06:58. > :07:03.what an older went through during the occupation. We were learning

:07:04. > :07:09.about what we would put in our suitcases if we were going to be

:07:10. > :07:12.evacuated. We have got grandparents and great campaigner and who went

:07:13. > :07:15.through it all, so it is good for us to realise what they went through.

:07:16. > :07:20.Although they were meant to get evacuated to Herm, the weather meant

:07:21. > :07:21.the school hall had to do. But the lessons they were learning were the

:07:22. > :07:33.same. To role`play give them more empathy

:07:34. > :07:34.and understanding. There will be some elements that they will look

:07:35. > :07:39.back to as adults, and it whll make back to as adults, and it will make

:07:40. > :07:45.a greater sense to them. And from this singsong to another. And

:07:46. > :07:46.another chance for people to remember what they went through,

:07:47. > :07:46.another chance for people to remember what they went through and

:07:47. > :08:07.celebrate Guernsey's freedom. We must never forget what happened.

:08:08. > :08:10.The older people, our parents, with their knowledge, they are no longer

:08:11. > :08:12.here, so it is only important that it is kept going. And, the

:08:13. > :08:15.commemorations and celebrathons will keep going across the Islands, as

:08:16. > :08:22.Guernsey and Jersey mark Liberation Day tomorrow.

:08:23. > :08:27.Meanwhile, a new radio dram` telling the story of Guernsey's Liberation

:09:11. > :09:16.The weather tomorrow will bd much better, so that is good news for

:09:17. > :09:22.those events. There is the chance of a shower, but they will be few and

:11:40. > :11:42.taken up residence at a country park in Cornwall. The Beautiful Pearl,

:12:09. > :12:10.from. It could be Kent or France or even they might have been here,

:12:40. > :12:43.until this spring to confirm that until this spring to confirm that

:12:44. > :12:48.the moth was indeed breeding here. These larger trees, obviously we are

:12:49. > :12:51.getting the seeds which are coming down... The moths depend on a

:12:52. > :12:57.specific tree, the hornbeam to survive and breed. And there's

:12:58. > :12:58.plenty of them at Mount Edgcombe. It had something to do with

:12:59. > :13:00.shipbuilding and that is why they shipbuilding and that is why they

:13:04. > :13:07.place, we are not sure. It is nice to have this population on sites,

:13:08. > :13:12.really. When they took the caterpillars away we spent the

:13:13. > :13:14.winter months like expectant parents waiting to confirm whether they wear

:13:15. > :13:15.these moths or not. The rare waiting to confirm whether they wear

:13:16. > :13:17.these moths or not. The rare moths are currently in their chrysalis
