Bodies of two US pilots found after Kyrgyzstan crash

Terribly tragic but two of the three families can get some form of closure now and hopefully the third body will be found soon.

The Kyrgyz government says it has found the bodies of two US pilots after a military refuelling plane crashed in the Central Asian state on Friday.
Search teams found the remains on Saturday morning, the emergencies ministry told news agencies.
The search for the third member of the plane's crew was continuing.

The KC-135 Stratotanker vanished from radar over mountains some 160km (100 miles) west of Bishkek where it had taken off.

Just to avoid some potential confusion, you might want to reference in the post which aircraft accident the link pertains to.

For a moment I thought this was about the 747 accident.

Ah right, never thought of that, I thought the location would have sufficed.

Excellent point. Perhaps I was the only one getting confusulated. :D

Not really...I get that more times than I care to admit :)
