Praying for the crew of our Sierra Papa 99 and everyone else involved.

Thoughts and prayers go out to everyone involved!

Thoughts and prayers with all involved - Glasgow Police 51 and civvies at The Clutha

Not being able to sleep I go down stairs and put on Sky news to see this shocking event. Having worked with this unit I'm just praying....Truly shocking. Fingers crossed!
lets leave the findings to the experts please.

My thoughts are with my former colleagues and crew of the Strathclyde / Police Scotland Air Support Unit,
their families and friends, and of those at the Pub who have been affected by this tragic incident.

A sad day indeed.

Coconutty.

I live no more than 5 mile from it , its always hard to read about these things but when on your own door step makes it that bit harder.
I hope no more join them as there still digging out people as we speak

My thoughts & prayers are with all involved :(

Confirmed 32 Casualties and some fatalities. Thoughts with everyone involved and everyone from my home city....

Very sobering news, my thoughts are with colleagues north of the border.

Sadly by the look of the wreckage and some media reports the crew never made it. Condolences to all concerned and another sad chapter in police aviation in my beloved country.

Tragic news. Thoughts with those involved.

My thoughts go out to those involved and their families, a sad day in Glasgow

I don't pray, but my thoughts are with all, especially the three colleagues who were just doing a job like no other. :uhoh::uhoh::uhoh:

Condolences to the families, friends and colleagues of those who lost their lives in the tragedy of 29th November 2013.

My thoughts and prayers are with them all. +

Condolences to all touched by this sad accident...

May the Rest in Peace.

As a serving officer, a big advocate of air support and one to count a number of observers and XO's amongst my friends, this has stunned me. It has crossed two close families - those of aviation, and the police service. For something like this to have happened three times in the same city just beggars belief.

Thoughts and prayers are with all involved, and furthermore, those who will step up into the 135's and other types across the world tonight, ready to do their duty on our behalf.

Deepest sympathies to all touched by this tragedy, a very sad weekend.
:(

A sad day for all in the helicopter community, wherever we are.

Keeping the family, colleagues, friends and all involved in my thoughts today.

Thank you for starting this thread as my original tribute was moderated out of the crash thread.

Having flown Police 51 in the past my thoughts & sincere condolences go out to everyone who has been affected in any way by this tragic accident.

And to those we have just lost - Rest in Peace.

Condolences to all the colleagues, friends and familes of those involved. Never nice to see things like this happen.

May they Rest in Peace and Godspeed.

Kia Kaha from Aotearoa. :sad::sad::sad:

RIP and deepest sympathies to all affected the incident and get well soon to those in hospital, as others have said, a very sad day..............:sad:

My condolences to the families of the crew and pub-goers. I can only hope that something positive comes from this tragedy.

My sincere condolences (from an ex police ASU helicopter pilot/CP).

Sincere condolences sad loss of a dedicated crew

My condoleances for those who lost their lives in the line of duty doing what they loved and felt was important.
Also my deepest sympathy for those who lost their lives or were injured while on a night out.

Life is short, you have to live it while you can. A glass will be raised in salute tonight.

Past all the speculation, guessing, and analyzing.....my heartfelt sympathies and condolences to the family, friends, and coworkers of those that perished.
Also a speedy and complete recovery to those injured.

A sad day, especially as the casualties are now confirmed. It put a dampener on the shift last night and tonight's won't be much better. :(

Savoia - what a beautiful, serene picture of heli. A contrast to the shocking pics of this tragic scene. May those who lost their lives Rest In Peace.

RIP to all those who died. The pilot was known to myself, he was a top top guy.

A safer pair of hands I have never flown with. RIP Dave Traill. Condolences to all family and friends of all involved.

RIP to all who lost their lives, my thoughts are with all their families.

No Speculation here
 

Relevant authorities and time will tell us what happened.
Condolences and support to all those touched by this sad event. Should this be the DT I served with I shall raise a glass and recall him getting a bollocking in the bar at Senelager by an army 1*. DT stood perfectly to attention whilst neatly "presenting" pint and fag. A tragic loss to family, service and friends.
