You'll perhaps remember the Bangkok Airways ATR 72 crash at Koh Samui in Thailand on 4 August - the aircraft left the runway and crashed into a former control tower. Captain killed and four of the 68 passengers seriously injured. The talk is of heavy rain, stiff crosswind and maybe windshear.
I was on holiday at the time and was barely aware of the incident, but as you can imagine the rescue operation was pretty dramatic. And, courtesy of the folks involved, here it is.
