The little town looked like a scene from hell - I well remember the TV reports.
There were fires, there was a huge hole in the ground where some houses had stood - it was stomach-turning.

The image that sticks in my mind is of the airplane seat, with a woman still in it, hanging from the side of a home. That and the nose of the 747, collapsed in a Scottish field. “The Maid of the Seas” painted on its side.
