Amazing postscript that Emiliano’s father has just died.

As I understood it on France24, the search will continue on the weekend when the weather calms down.

This sad report makes me think he should have told the pilot to stand down. It’s better to be a day late in this world than a half a century early in the next. When I was building hours for my commercial license I did a lot of weekend trips to the coast (in South Africa), on more than one occasion I had to postpone my return journey, all it cost me was having to put in a day’s leave at my work.

The Mirror article linked by Newforest seems a bit odd. It talks about a jet, and then a turbine aircraft, but I think this was a piston powered Malibu.

They went down in the dark evening, and the currents around the Casquets are strong enough to disperse light oils before morning. It’s awful, but I think it may be a while before anything turns up.

Glenn Miller also disappeared in the Channel. Hope it’s not another Bermuda triangle.
