Hi Garry,

It is very sad for all concerned when this happens,

Roger.
Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt.

Very sad news.

Apparently, it flew very low over Filey Bay towards Flamborough according to someone I spoke to a short while ago on my evening walk on the cliffs. According to a member of the local coastguard team I came across, "When something breaks at that height, not much chance, bad business."

Condolences to all concerned.

I add my condolences.
The one redeeming fact is that it sounds like it was all over very quickly.
Cheers, Mike.
