Any closer in old town and it would have been my place. 2 crashes in the Arctic so far. But a Twotter is very weird, considering it is the god of aviation there with the 737-200. RIP.

It makes it a bit more personal as I likely knew the family of one of the crew

Master Corporal Stacey was a close friend of my wife. Thank you for posting srgalahad. I'll let my wife know as soon as she gets back safe from deployment in Oct.
