I think this paragraph wins the 'most USELESS addition to a news article ever' award:

Chip shop manager Mr Chamberlain, from Stapleford, Nottinghamshire, said he did not see the collision itself, which happened 14 miles away, but said from what the pilot said it happened at about 1,800 feet up.

Seriously, WHAT?

Clearly a tragedy, my thoughts go out to all involved.
