Thankyou Mr Avtur, New info is always welcome.
One can only comment on the info that is avbl.
The original info avbl AT THE TIME was that the POB was 'unknown'....
Your post is appreciated.
Mr 'MG' , thankyou for your comment.
I can assure you that after 26 yrs experience in related matters, I am not suprised at anything anymore.....and, IF as reported, the facts were AS reported, the I do not resile from my comment.
A VERY WISE old SAR man once told me that 'they are all very nice fellows and excellent pilots - until we have to start looking for them - and we discover that usually, they are 'human' after all, and some horrible mistakes are made, usually under pressure.....
As I stated earlier, very sad.
