    Polish President died in a catastrophe

    A plane, flying to Katyn, crushed near Smolensk - 87 people died, in this we have President Lech Kaczynski and his wife, last President on emigre. That's all it is known by now.

    Being carried by the BBC as well. What does this mean fir Poland? Will fresh elections be needed or the deputy take over. The story also says the president of the central bank was aboard as well. This could cayuse a shake in the economy with ripple effects throughout Europe. Combine this with the UK election and we could see another economic crisis.
    What do we want? Time travel! When do we want it? It's irrelevant!

    Last president on emigre, President of Poland, chief of general staff, chief of Polish National Bank, commanders of land, air and sea forces...

    And near Katyn, tragic irony...

    When President dies, Marshall Of The Sejm takes his places and in 60 days new President is elected.

    And, we've lost majority of our General Staff commanders. This is dangerous beyond understanding.

    We've lost chief of National Bank. This will shake the economy.

    One of the highest persons in Catholic and Orthodox church died also.


    I'm sorry, but I wont post for a time. Last time this happened... in 1943, in Gibraltar...

    Yet, I'll post:

    If you want, you can write your condolences in this link, it's in Polish, but you can write in english there, no problem. Here's the link:

    http://wiadomosci.onet.pl/4,50,13,82...,0,ksiega.html

    This is unofficial condolence list, but I think it's the most popular

    Tragic news. I'm half Polish, but never really followed news from Poland all that much (was born in the U.S. and so was my dad who is 100%) - meaning that I'm pretty far removed. Still, the Poles are my people (well, at least halfway!)

    Hope all fares well for you there, Manilianus.

    Plane's wing probably hit a tree, which was the cause of tragedy.

    Thank you, Morbii, I just cannot believe how this happened - Tu-154 was so old machine that it was told from 2004 to replace them. And who lets so many important people fly in a one plane...

    Once again we've lost creme de la creme of politics and public life. And a head of the country... This Smolensk is a place of bad luck...

    I really hope that governement will quickly overcome this situation, because without general staff, chief of national bank we're in really big trouble.

    For what is known, in Smolensk there was a fog, and landing field hadn't any landing guidance devices. So another cause, presumably. It's unconfirmed but presumably pilot took 4 ladning attempts before he crashed.
