Very sad. Condolences to the families.

Anybody else notice that according to the BBC it was another example or 'Hero pilot tried to avoid School/House/Hospital/Church (*delete as appropriate).' Well you would, wouldn't you? Given the rather limited choice of some trees or the roof of a house for my forced landing I know which I would choose.

No disrespect intended for the two poor guys, but it's just another example of the sensationalist reporting that seems to cover any type of aviation incident.
