Polish President Killed In Plane Crash

A plane with Polish President Lech Kaczynski on board crashed Saturday on landing at Smolensk in western Russia, foreign ministry spokesman Piotr Pszkowski said.

"The plane scraped the tree tops, crashed and caught fire," he said on the private television channel TVN24.

"On board were the president, accompanied by his wife, the army chief of staff and Deputy Foreign Minisiter Andrzej Kremer," he said.

The plane, a Tupolev 154, had a capacity of up to 90 people, he added.

The regional governor of Smolensk said there were no survivors.

"It clipped the tops of the trees, crashed down and broke into pieces," the governor of the Smolensk region, Sergei Antufiev, told Russia-24 television news network by telephone.

"There were no survivors."

95 people died (including the crew)

I myself am actually not able to be funny for next day or two.

Maybe not many people liked him... but most important people of our government died there. I'm in shock and sad.
They were going to attend the anniversary of a big tragedy in Katyn.

My condolences Piz

As you get older you find that when people die it affects you (not as much as it did when you were younger death is something you dont understand fully as a child), even if it's people you didn't know personally.

Well gee. My friend commited suicide, people of my family died. People die, I get sad. Sorry it's harsh, but you speak like death is something new.
I'm just in shock that our national Elite died today, near Katyn. History repeating itself.

How many deaths do they want before they ditch those old, poorly maintained Tupolevs?

I hope Poland won't get plunged into much chaos because of this accident.

I hope there's a constitutionally valid Line of Succession in place. I don't know much about Poland's Governmental structure, but I'm sure things on that front will be fine. I also hope none of the politicians use this time to take partisan pot shots.

Wow, i'm impressed...

My condolences, and yes, this kind of sudden deaths are so impressive because you can think, maybe is their time... but is a tragic way to do it.

I can only wish for something like that to happen in my country to our corrupted government.

It was fog. The pilot had tried to land three or four times before the final, fatal attempt. It was said that it was possible the president making the pilot land. There had been a previous case when he went to Georgia (not the US state) and he insisted on landing there, even though it was dangerous. That time the pilot resisted him, but maybe this pilot couldn't.

Pizdzius · 04-10-2010, 06:51 PM

Atm the truth is different. There was no fog and the plane started to tear down to pieces 1km before the crash. The pieces were found far before the crash site. I am not sure if Russia will show us the real recordings of black boxes, since they refused polish experts to participate in processing the recordings.

We actually CAN understand what witnesses say, polish and russian. Some of the media deleted their speeches. The fog was an hour before the crash, but there was none when it happened.

But true. It happened in Georgia before, the pilot refused to land in dangerous terrain, he was fired later. This one had to obey.

No i dont, death is just part of the cycle of life i only have one surviving grandparent now, as my others are dead. I was just trying to say as a child you dont see death with the same eyes you have as an adult.
