Well, the media circus (or vultures, whatever) are slowly dwindling away from the ISK main gate.

On a technical note, the problem that caused 666 to ditch in '95 was fixed shortly after the incident, the other crashes were birdstrike (1980) and pilot error (1995). The St Mawgan incident mentioned earlier in this thread made it back to the runway, as I believe.

I can't imagine what the guys at their operating base are feeling right now.....
