This news is just devastating... :(

153 burnt to death in holiday jet crash in Madrid (http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/travel/news/article4576835.ece)

I was in front of the tv the whole day... my dad, who is also a pilot (captain), had a similar situation some years ago in a B-727, after an engine exploded during the take-off (like in this case), but in his case he took the right procedures and he was also lucky, so it didn't have any consequences...

It is still unknown why the plane crashed after the engine started to burn.

I'm in shock... fortunately we don't know any of the victims but there were three people from my town.

Oh thanks :)... I was worried about a couple of people I thought could be on board but fortunately we didn't know anyone...
