….local police are now reporting that unsurprisingly there are no survivors from the flight. I suppose it’s now a matter of understanding the collateral damage, dreadful term when it comes to deaths on the ground.

Lots of ‘experts’ suggesting the ‘wing flaps’ looked in the wrong position and the wheels should also have been up.

One British person has survived apparently

The survivor has just be pictured on BBC news. Not only did he survive, he walked away with minor injuries. He was apparently found with a valid boarding pass in his pocket.

There's a new video of the actual takeoff now, the plane is in the air for less than 20 seconds, looks like a big puff of smoke from the left engine but could just be dust blown up into the air from the jet wash.

The emergency propeller can be heard on the earlier video of the crash so clearly their is an engine failure shortly after take off.

Ryanair have just increased the price for pre-booking this seat on all their flights.

….news channels now showing the survivor walking away, incredible.

Looks to me that the tail of the plane came down first, probably broke the fuselage in two. The back exploded into flames whilst that bloke was thrown clear from the front.
