Todays GermanWings flight 4U 9525 aircrash in the French Alps.

Oh Lord, she only knew it had happened because of going into the bedroom to check on my water bowl and heard the newscaster saying the dreadful words "there are thought to be no survivors", she raised immediately to the BBC website for further news.

How many times has she flown in a light aircraft over these very same Alps? Countless times, it is a very rough and raw part of the world. (Due north of Monaco). There are rough tracks up there that wend their way amongst the mountains but no proper roads.

This will make the recovery especially difficult for the people who have the unenviably, very grim task of going to the crash site and have to try to piece it all together in order to make sense of this accident, for which the pilot had not issued a MayDay or emergency call.

Helicopters have now landed at the site and the Black Box has been located.

One hundred and fifty passengers and crew have died, they leave behind them God knows how many family members, friends and colleagues who will be devasted by this loss of human lives.

Poor people.. vayo con Dios.

GeeGee Parrot.
