Just a reminder of two relevant reference sites:

http://news.bbc.co.uk/onthisday/hi/d...00/2515787.stm

Much is made about the "ghoulish" sightseers, but it is interesting to see the AAIB comment on that
The field was sufficiently inaccessible to prevent all but the most persistent sightseers from reaching it. The police were successful in controlling spectators, and contemporary reports that members of the public had impeded rescue services by their presence near the scene are not borne out by the facts.
