It is is good to know that no one has died. And i'm sure all the crew did there best to save everyone.

I would like to know in relation to none of the commands been given from the F/D - don't some A/C's have the ability to have pre-recorded emergency announcments? Could they not have a button in the F/D that would alert CC to shout brace signal whilst the F/D crew prepared to land - obviously I realise that it may be apparent they had very little time to react to what ever situation that was presented to them. But in addition to that - surely crew who would have been flying into there home base would have realised something was wrong just prior to landling. If they've self evacuted could they have not shouted out Brace command?

Pleased everyone is ok at least.


As we have all said again & again, I think it is 'best' not to 'speculate' or 'simulate' anything until we have more 'factual' information.

Goodnight.
