Oh Dear

[Hopkirk]

It looks like the Wagner Group leader has been killed in a plane crash

[Hopkirk]

Yevgeny Prigozhin

[DTCwordfan]

Assassinated? By the Russians or the Ukraine folk placing a bomb onboard, given that the plane 'suddenly' disappeared off the radar screens.

The implications thereof?

[ToraToraTora]

Vlad's bumped him off.

[Hopkirk]

His days were numbered. You don't cross Mad Vlad.

I wonder who ordered that the plane be shot down, north of Moscow !

[DTCwordfan]

Vlad Putain, known as the Russian mad monk,
Was wandering through the Kremlin quite drunk,
He was caught somewhat unawares
By a descending flight of stairs,
His long cloak causing an aircraft slump.
'Za zda-ró-vye' Prigozhin, you effing chump'

[Hopkirk]

Was he on board?

My mate says he just saw him at Watford Gap.

[DTCwordfan]

eating one of these in th Boiger-King, was he?

Nice one DTC

Hilarious. Flight and (possibly cabin crew died)

[DTCwordfan]

Private flight and therefore probably all tied to the Wagner Group, passengers and crew, 3 of the latter which on an Embrarer would be 2 in the cockpit and 1 attendant. Putin doesn't care a shyyte though about them.

[Old_Geezer]

Ah 2 threads eh ?
Yeah, so I see.
Not right, but I suspect few tears will be shed for a leader of the Wagner lot.

[LadyCG]

He should have finished the job while he had the chance.

I am amazed no one here has commented on the nature of the plummet . ( no foos please)
Vertical down

Lockerbie - it took at least 15 mins, poss 30 after break up - on board bomb

Japanese - did it break up, like all engines fell off? - they had time to pass around pens and write last words in their passports, and SOME put the notes in waterproofs. That was the one, where the execs before being fired were made to kneel in front of their desks and repeat " we are sorry" as the bereaved filed past. ( murmuring murderers! ) - some one must remember this

[piggynose]

after reading a ttt book recommendation Red Notice by Bill Browder, im not in the least surprised!!

[LadyCG]

This is a good book too, if a hard read:
