Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / April 2008UK Plane Crash
Is everyone okay who might be in the Farnbourgh area! Charleen who hopes so! > Is everyone okay who might be in the Farnbourgh area! Hi - that's about 5 miles from where I am. According to the BBC news it was a small private plane carrying 5 people that crashed into two houses in a quiet suburban area. No news about the plane's occupants or if anyone was in the houses at the time. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/7321589.stm Deb.

I just heard on the local (Seattle) news that a few people were slightly injured/burned by debris on the ground. I don't usually watch the news and had DH un mute it so I could hear what was being said. All i caught was the news about the people on the ground. Still sad .

Unfortunately, as well as those few people's injuries, the 5 occupants of the plane were killed in the crash/fireball. Despite that tragedy it seems to have been a lucky escape for a lot more people as it's a very residential built-up area, with housing estates, a large hospital, and two large towns all very close by. I don't suppose that experience or the recent near miss at Heathrow will stop our Govt adding more runways to our existing airports within London's residential areas, though. /end mini-rant Deb.

Geez, I didn't know that, as I rarely watch the news :/ There's never any 'good' news GovernmentS HA!!! don't 'even' get me started on that one, sweetie ;) We'll end up on Bill Maher (or however he spells it) <G> Hug Kyla >> I just heard on the local (Seattle) news that a few people >> were slightly injured/burned by debris on the ground.

What a mess to come home to. I've heard people say they need a holiday to save their lives- I doubt it''s ever been more true than in this case!

He said he saw the fright in their eyes as they came down and will never get over it because there was absolutely nothing he could do to save them. How awful is that? Imagine.
