"Cardiff City Football Club agrees with calls to salvage the wreckage of the aircraft which crashed whilst transporting Emiliano Sala.

"The AAIB’s report raises significant questions and more detailed analysis must be done to establish what caused the accident and resulted in the loss of two lives.

No blame should be attributed to anyone, until the final report is published."

Now that there factors beyond bad weather that may have contributed to the crash, then recovery of the craft makes perfect sense.

A short statement from the club too which most will concur :clap:

Hopefully, there will be pressure to raise the wreckage (maybe pilot David Ibbotson too) and get closure on the whole sorry episode. I feel sure City themselves (maybe FC Nantes and other interested parties) will contribute to any costs and there could even be Public Funding raised?

Surely the insurers should be footing the bill for raising the wreckage.

Completely agree with the family and the club.

Nothing further needs to be added!
