Hi,

-Whole raws of passengers' seats detached and flew around inside the cabin, as did hand luggage, with each hit on the ground.
If confirmed .. it's very alarming.

Eventually, two children were left by a firetruck at the care of the survivor women with minor injuries (she was fully mobile) while they resumed the rescue and fire extingusing. She was the one that helped them earlier on, taking one to the bank of the creek (water was shallow enough to walk above it) and pulling another who she left with her father, another survivor.
She deserve a civil medal.

Cheers.
