I calculated that at 500 kmh a 50 m plane would take a fraction of second to crash. I can only say it was mercifully extremely quick. It takes almost a whole second for a thought to be registered, and there was no time for that, there would have been no recognizance of the crash.

If one were to get a serious diagnosis from a doctor one day, there would be a lot of time to think about it.

What can we do, we are mortal, that is simply how it is.

I hope the papers will not make too ugly a scene if there are video recordings.
