Broadcast notes
Anything that is not in the sources was sourced from Sky News' television channel, which I am monitoring for updates.  wacky wace  17:31, 19 November 2010 (UTC)

All flights suspended

Two injured

In and out

One critically "Two fire engines rushing across" "we've been told the airport is closed" "on the edges of the runway" "crashed on apporoach"

"Think, dense fog" "cannot see anything." "see nothing but a few lights and that's all." "keeping people in check-in back" Cessna aircraft "walking wounded" "major incident"

Strange angle, skidded, caught fire "taken to hospital with serious injuries."

Organ was transported to hospital, operation successfully carried out.

Aircraft was approaching at "odd angle", "skidded", caught fire

Registration: G-VUEM (Additional research showed aircraft is Cessna Citation 501)

Markham interview
"alerted to what was described as a 'hard landing' at the airport"

"The airport authorities are actively involved with us"

"small fire within the aircraft"

Plane carrying organ for transplantation.

Organ still viable.

"Visibility appalling"

Visibility will "slow things down"

"thorough investigation"

"It would appear the aircraft came down on landing and soon after there was a small fire within the aircraft. There were two casualties on board the plane. One we believe is in serious condition and has been airlifted to hospital; and the second one has been taken to hospital but with less significant injuries."

Added source for additional confirmation
I'd like to understand [ this pre-publish edit] better. What was being confirmed &mdash; something that the pre-existing sources (counting OR) conflicted each other on? something they omitted? something they mentioned, but that seemed worth being especially sure of? --Pi zero (talk) 12:57, 20 November 2010 (UTC)
