Little bits I'm hearing isn't good, was worried it was one of ours but isn't. Fact they were looking for relatives before saying anything reads volumes sadly. Will not add anything else about type etc.

-I've just heard the sad news on the local radio, whilst driving back from Newark Air Museum - they carried an interview with a local resident who seems to have been one of the first people on the scene and he was very emotional about what he encountered. Blue skies to those involved!
