Calm if cool morning in the islands. It's cloudy, but the sun is just trying to peep out. Two French fishing boats have been and gone, changing crews within the usual 75 minutes. In this port, you get a discount of 25% in your harbour dues if you leave within 24 hours. The fishing crews are flown in from Brittany on a charter plane, and the relieved crews flown back on the same aircraft. Quite a nifty operation, which they've been continuing for 18 months now. On the previous occasion, one of the boats collided with Goat Island.
A plane has crashed in Brazil, at the airport of Sao Paulo. All people on the plane were killed, as were a number of people on the ground. The plane apparently went off the runway, down an embankment, across a busy road and slammed into a fueldepot. The ensuing fire burnt at 1,000C (1,800F), meaning nobody on the plane stood a chance.
