So they found the plane and the body was Sala

The media are now saying that whilst tragic, it will at least give the family closure etc etc

Any thought for the pilot? Its as if the media have assumed Sala flew the fucking plane himself

Did he bail with the only parachute?

I agree re the pilot, he seems to have been forgotten or at very least been treated as the ‘Sherpa Tensing’ of the tragedy (for younger folks, its only in the last 10 years or so that it has become ‘Hillary and Tensing’ as the first to reach the summit and return… )

That was my thought as well, maybe he’s alive and well living in Bogota..

I find the whole Cardiff “he will live forever in our hearts” bit a tad “me too” for my liking. 😐

OK he was a prospective employee of a local company but isn’t this a little too “worthy”…sad but people are out there every day dying tragic deaths.

Lots more stories today, one saying how the pilot didn’t have a licence for paying passengers let alone the plane, and this

Nothing about this is anything other than a nightmare. Now the pilot had no night licence

BBC News - Sala pilot David Ibbotson ‘not qualified to fly at night’

> **[Sala pilot 'not qualified to fly at night'](https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-47749265)**

> David Ibbotson is thought to have been colour-blind, which prevents a night-flying qualification.

Good. For all the noise they made about ‘Sala being a Cardiff player’ and milking the sympathy, just to then try and weasel out of paying his transfer fee was disgusting. I’m glad FIFA has ruled in favour of Nantes.

Just seems completely unnecessary. Don’t clubs spend a lot of money insuring themselves against this sort of contingency?

Cardiff will never live it down. Swansea will make sure everyone remembers.

‘once a bluebird always a bluebird’. ‘in our hearts for ever’ and other such hypocritical bollocks. Now that they have to put their money where their mouth is they are crying foul. As pap pointed out, they will never live it down.
