Thank you for your prayers. There was only one survivor and one recovered body. The others are still missing...Just terrible.

Chick, this was a terrible tragedy. I think they've recovered all of the missing bodies inside the wreckage. A very sad day indeed. Hubby knew one of the men who died, used to work with him years ago.

I agree that having found them is at least a closure for the families. I don't find your post flippant at all dear.The survivor is in critical condition so we all need prayers for him. Eagle where did they work together?

It is better always Celtic to have found the body/bodies to give closure to the familys and there is nothing flippant about your statement. You are just being kind.

This is so tragic. I'm sure it's all you've been hearing about since it happened. Our news has a habit of doing that too.

What going on with helicopters lately? We had a bad accident this winter when one of the medi-vac helicopters crashed. They are the ones who fly to the scene of horrible car accidents and transport the injured to the hospital.

Was the weather bad? Do they know what caused it?

All those families left without their loved one. How sad.
