A very sad story and not directly 9/11 related except in the following way. The image shows what a plane crash looks like! The plane does not vaporize or melt or spread itself over an eight mile area. It ends up in great big chunks like in the above image. Bodies and luggage are evident in the immediate vicinity! There has been so much pap spouted about the flight 93 "crash" it is worth drawing the distinction between the 9/11 fairytales and the reality of a plane crash as pictured above.

Television pictures showed firefighters dousing blackened hillside covered in debris. Thirty bodies were recovered by late afternoon

As Lockerbie made abundantly clear.

A little sarcasm copied from LooseChange forum.
Russian Tupelov Jet crashes, killing all aboard

Russian plane crashes in Ukraine
Officials said 30 bodies were found at the scene
A Russian plane has crashed in eastern Ukraine minutes after sending a distress signal, killing all 170 people on board, officials said.
The Tupolev-154 was flying from the Russian Black Sea holiday resort of Anapa to St Petersburg when it disappeared from radar screens.
Emergency workers were at the scene of the burning wreckage, about 45km (30 miles) north of the city of Donetsk. |
more....
Investigators arriving at the scene, having trained on 9/11 crash sites, were dumbfounded to find large pieces of plane debris, including the tail section, at the site.
"In a post-9/11 world, we were shocked to find this pattern of debris. We came equipped with dustbins and tweezers to collect the wreckage, and instead, we were finding seats and passengers, deceased, nearly intact. The readily-identifiable fuselage sections we recovered are hard to reconcile with what we know about plane crashes -- that the craft generally disappears completely into a dark and smoking hole in the rough pattern of a plane, as in your American Shanksville" reported the senior official on the scene.
"We had figured the plane and all bodies would be fully vaporized by the impact and burning kerosene fuel. Next time, i suppose we had better bring a coroner" reported one Russian investigator. "Also, what are we supposed to do with these large, obvious, pieces of plane debris -- what bizarre kind of plane crash leaves this wreckage behind? we are mystified." |

Even more mystery!!!!
http://mosnews.com/news/2006/08/22/airlinercrashupdate.shtml
This mystery object appeared near the crash site and investigators are baffled as to what it is. They are looking to see if it was connected with the airplane in some way. Rumours are it is an engine part but this has been discounted as it did not evaporate on impact. |

|
|
It would seem that the Russians do not, as yet, have any photographs of yesterdays air disaster. The photograph posted by Blackcat above and attached to the article regarding yesterday's crash, is actually from the 2002 incident in which a Russian Jet collided with a DHL cargo plane over Germany!
See article at: www.gazeta.ru/2004/05/20/oa_121308.shtml
A minor infraction perhaps but indicative of the way in which the news media makes liberal use of library photographs.

The first photograph I posted in the serious article is from the Guardian and is I believe a genuine photograph of yesterday's crash, as is the other colour photograph above.
The black and white photograph is what appears with the report from that Russian newspaper site but anyway it was clearly sarcasm. You may as well point out that officials were not really baffled etc..
Strangely - the site that the black and white photo came from does have pictures of yesterdays crash.

hang on a second.
There is a chap stood here with SECURITY written on the back of his jacket.
Is this normal in the Ukraine? I was not aware all the signs were in English. |
