Photos of deceased

Deep down I agree completely but for heavens sake, the pics were accidentally taken I'm sure and unless your attention is specifically drawn to the "objects" in the crash it is physically impossible go make out much detail!

We are bombarded with the most violent and gruesome scenes 24/7 on TV e,g, Afghanistan, Iraq etc. and we have become so hardened and conditioned by death, poverty, destruction and the like, very few of us even turn a hair any more.

We "posters" are partially to blame as we do tend to hammer and emphasise stuff like this, if we dropped the subject it would disappear in a day or so.

If we, as pilots, see a car crash with victims clearly deceased and visible all over the road and in the vehicles, we hardly turn a hair but because we are more closely associated with aircraft victims we do tend to get more hot and bothered over the niceties of it!

Anyway, yer all right basically, not a great image of our media but let's forget about it and concentration what went wrong anc prevent it happening it again.
