The year is only two days old and Japan has already had to deal with as many tragedies. After a devastating earthquake on New Year's Day, January 2nd saw a passenger plane collide with a small coast guard aircraft at Tokyo’s biggest airport. Both planes burst into flames. While all 379 passengers and crew of the Japan Airlines plane managed to safely evacuate before the Airbus burned out, only one of the six people on the coastguard plane survived.

For more on this, we talk to Stephen Wright. He's a professor of aviation at Tampere University in Finland.

And we talk to aviation expert and journalist Julian Bray, who joins us from Cambridge in the UK.
