Title: Birmingham Crash
Post by: flanker on November 19, 2010, 06:38:45 PM

Should be some interesting diversions going on tonight with the light aircraft crash at Birmingham. As I write this UAE37 from Dubai is going over - from it's altitude it looks like it's diverting into Manchester.

certainly not a light aircraft. A Cessna Citation on a transplant run

From what I read it was carrying a heart for transplant, seems they managed to recover that and the crew are ok (?).

Seems weather was pretty awful there at time of accident.

According to Sky - a liver and the transplant has been done
