Polish Pilots ‘Saw Crash Coming’

  • The BBC on the crash that killed Polish President Lech Kaczynski:

    “The crew was
    aware of the inevitability of the coming catastrophe, if only due to the
    plane shaking after the wings hit the trees – which we are certain
    happened.”

    Col Zbigniew Rzepa, a Polish military prosecutor, said
    the pilots had been aware of the imminent crash as the last seconds of
    the voice recordings “were dramatic”.

    Dramatic, but not yet revealed.  Russian aviation officials also now say the plane “only tried to land once – not up to four times as previously reported.”
