I would say that it is lucky that this Britannia Airways aircraft didn't land at Southend that day. Safety zones are there for a reason and this is the reason.

The aircraft came to rest 171 metres right of the runway centreline. The Church is 94m from the runway centreline. Does anyone think that if that aircraft hit the church Southend would be allowed to stay open?
