Not to derail the thread too much, but he may not have had much to chose from in the hire a plane department. Just heard that there are 1500 private planes at Davos.
 
The WhatsApp message from Sala....

"I am really tired now. I was over in Nantes sorting things out, doing this, doing that," he says in the message. "I am now aboard a plane that seems like it is falling to pieces. I'm going to Cardiff now, crazy, and tomorrow we get going. I will train with my new team tomorrow."

He added: "If you do not have any more news from in an hour and a half, I don't know if they need to send someone to find me. I am getting scared!"

Bless you...!!!
That true? (Not seen news all day)
 
Shouldn’t the pilot have had concerns as it seems he had a difficult flight on the same plane when he went to Cardiff to sign a few days before?
 
Seems the pilot , who is from Scunthorpe, was only a part time flyer and had a separate full time job . Think I heard that it was this player's agent who arranged the journey from Cardiff to Nantes and back . An aircraft expert has said the 100 nautical miles over that section of the channel , in poor weather , in the dark and at a relatively low altitude would have been risky at best with most pilots not attempting such a hazardous route . Sadly my expectation is the sea has taken the two poor souls and their bodies may never be found . The Argentine boy seemed a lovely person and my heart goes out to his parents and siblings who must be devastated as will the family of the pilot .

I don’t see how they haven’t found anything yet. With all modern technology and it’s hardly the deepest depths of the worlds oceans, they have a rough idea of the whereabouts. How the **** have they not even found a single piece of wreckage? You’d have thought they’d have found every last rivet by now.

Have you ever tried to spot a grain of sand in a large pan of boiling water ?
