Looks like the Lord and some luck allowed everyone but two a second
chance. One passenger and the pilot didn't make it.


Incredibly - and this luck has held twice in five days now for
aircraft laden with A1 - the fuselage didn't conflagrate.


That's not in the least bit incredible. Mostly they don't catch fire,
particulalry in this sort of accident.


There's another report today of the miraculous escape of nearly all on
board on another aircraft; two people died (pilot one of them,
sadly)...

The cause of the crash is very, very rare - a wing coming off!


Why don't you just go to Nascar races?
