What annoyed me most about the whole thing
was that, while the story blatantly concerns a turboprop aircraft (likely a Dash 8), the BBC used a picture of a Boeing 737 to illustrate the story!

The pictures do get updated as better ones become available
Pretty sure they had a 737 landing on there this morning.

As I said: in that pic, blatantly an overwing turboprop engine!

I know! I know!! And the other day, there was an article on the west coast mainline
and the FOOLS used type 2-3422-344-A rolling stock to illustrate the article. *snort* *snort*
*fiddles with plaster on spectacles*

My childhood was aeroplanes and dinosaurs
I think most of the dinosaur stuff got displaced by Pokemon, so planes are all I've got.

I notice the pilot is sitting in the row in front of the cameraman having a good gander.
But WHO'S CONTROLLING THE PLANE, EH? ANSWER ME THAT.

Wonder if it would have survived the fall,
Don't know what the terminal velocity of a scrub python is, but I feel that science should investigate.
That's all assuming that it hadn't been mangled by the flaps retracting after takeoff of course.
