88 Killed in Phuket Plane Crash

88 people have been killed in a plane crash in Phuket today. This is the worst airline accident since December 11, 1998 when a plane crashed in Surat Thani killing 101 people.

The plane which was being operated by One-Two-Go Airlines, owned by Orient Thai Airways, apparently skidded when it hit the runway. It then split in two and the tail section remained on the runway while the front of the plane slid into the mountains surrounding the airport where it then burst into flames.

In addition to those killed it is estimated that 42 people were hospitalized. 14 people are still unaccounted for.

Eight Britons, eight Thais, five Germans and two Australians were among 42 known survivors, hospital workers said. Over half of the passengers were Europeans on holiday according to the flight manifest.

I am grieving for this terrible tragedy on Phuket, which was also devastated by the tsunami in December of 2004.

Continuing Earthquakes and Tsunami Warnings

Earthquakes continue to rock Indonesia and tsunami warnings are being updated in the entire Indian Ocean area, but so far there have been only small waves that have been isolated in the same area as the earthquakes themselves. Tremors ranging in intensity from 4.9 to 7.8 have been felt over the past 3 days, though no deaths have been attributed to tsunamis. There have been 14 people killed and 56 injured in Indonesia as a result of the earthquakes over the past 3 days.

Let’s all be thankful that these earthquakes did not cause a repeat of the December 2004 tsunamis.

Andaman and Nicobar Island Tsunami Warning

This morning at 7:10am EST there was an earthquake registering 8.2 on the richter scale in Indonesia near Jakarta and Sumatra. Tremors were felt as far away as Thailand, 1200 miles away. So far only 2 deaths and 100 injuries have been reported as well as a 9 foot wave hitting Padang on Sumatra. Tsunami warnings have been issued all over the Indian Ocean region as far away as the Andaman and Nicobar Islands of India which are 420 miles northwest of Phuket island in Thailand.

Phuket was the site of the massive and tragic tsunami in December of 2004. The earthquake that generated that tsunami was a 9.2 on the richter scale and was located in the same region as this one. We can only hope and pray that this earthquake will not generate a similar disaster.

There is no additional information at this time, but I will be keeping my eye on developments and will report anything I find out.
