A n email I received

This morning I opened my email and this is what I received:


This is the executive summary;

Boeing 747-200 carrying almost 5000 full boxes of flowers took off at 3 am on Monday morning bound for MIA. Upon take off there was a catastrophic engine failure which disintegrated an engine. There was fire. Plane declared an emergency but was already in the air as it had reached V1 or point of no return. It started fuel dump maneuver but very quickly the situation escalated and the pilot was left with no other choice but to crash land the plane in the nearest cleared piece of land available. Almost all flowers contained in the plane were Elite.

Attached pictures!!!!

All 8 crew members managed to live thru this one... 7 american pilots and 1 dominicano chico!!!

2 people on the ground who lived in a house died when the plane landed on top of their heads. They were the ones who looked after the cattle who I assume managed to run when they saw the plane coming in.


Wow!! most people would have never heard about this. Or even cared about the cargo--- but what about the florists and clients waiting for the cargo--- maybe flowers for their party or wedding. 5000 boxes is a lot of flowers to lose- and by the looks of things I can't believe anyone survived. That's amazing.
