L’Équipe have now seen the final text message that Emiliano Sala sent to his closest Argentine friends (possibly a group chat of some kind). In it, Sala says he is scared the plane “could fall to pieces” & that “if you don’t hear from me in 1.5 hours...”

I think sending a message before getting on a plane saying you are scared and sending a message during the flight saying you are scared are quite different actually. Yes you are correct, Caution best applied in these events I think.

Full transcript there. You can click through and listen to the message.
Haunting indeed. Gut wrenching. Sickening.
Really struggling to wrap my head around this - its really affected me.

The rest is gallows humor but I can’t imagine he was genuinely worried for his life. It’s a bit dark but “lighthearted” all the same.

Re: Light aircraft gone down from Nantes to Cardiff near Guernsey last night?
The Times is reporting that the plane wreckage has been found, which I took to be a significant development:
https://www.thetimes.co.uk/edition/n...ound-8grhgh2qq
But reading the article (you can see a lot of it on the BBC website here: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/blogs-the-papers-46968019), it is clear that they are referring to the unidentified objects that were reported by the police earlier, and then goes on to say that it is not confirmed that these are from the aircraft. This is not the time to complain about inaccuarate reporting, but there is one hell of a difference between "plane wreckage found" and "objects that cannot be confirmed as coming from an aircraft".
So despite the headline - no new info. Still hoping that this will somehow turn out OK.

Almost 36 hours since the disappearance, hardly thought about anything else since I heard the news.

Guernsey Police focusing on Life Raft Option which was on board apparently.
" 9.30am
We are searching based on four possibilities:
1. They have landed elsewhere but not made contact.
2. They landed on water, have been picked up by a passing ship but not made contact
3. They landed on water and made it into the life raft we know was on board
4. The aircraft broke up on contact with the water, leaving them in the sea.
Our search area is prioritised on the life raft option.
More updates as information becomes available"
https://twitter.com/GuernseyPolice
Keep the faith and still praying.
