As a young boy, I and my family used to take month/2-month long holidays on the island of Corfu (my father was a university lecturer and got long holidays). We would relax on the beach opposite the coast of south Albania, about 9km away.
At that time, Albania was hard-core Chinese-style communism, with gun boats patrolling up and down the coast at night. I remember one early morning when a young Albanian man swam under cover of darkness to the village where we were staying.
Nowadays, there are more Albanians in the UK, than in Albania! And most crime in the UK is committed by Albanians 🙂
Still, worth consideration as a retirement destination, as is eg Cyprus.
The air quality is so terrible right now in Luang Prabang that I have just booked a flight back to Thailand tomorrow! I'm coughing, nose streaming etc. Impossible now to consider this location for retirement 🙂
Good news. Should lead to a report by Canadian TSB, even if nothing much comes out here.
I see that the most senior officer on board is now described as 'pilot trainee': no inference or judgment here but will be interesting to find out from investigation who was PIC / PF / PM [Pilot In Charge / Pilot Flying / Pilot Monitoring] etc.
