Emiliano Sala died of head and chest injuries

The inquest has heard Emiliano Sala was identified by finger print evidence. The cause of death, which was established after a post-mortem, is given as head and chest injuries. A pathologist described the cause of death as “head and trunk injuries”.

The inquest has been adjourned. The full AAIB investigation into the plane crash is expected to take between six and 12 months, although an interim report is due within a fortnight.





:cry:

Cardiff City footballer Emiliano Sala died from "head and trunk injuries", a post-mortem examination found, an opening inquest at Dorset Coroner's Court heard.

The Argentine footballer was travelling from Nantes to Cardiff in a light aircraft flown by pilot David Ibbotson when it lost contact with air traffic control over the Channel north of Guernsey on January 21.


Monday 11th February 2019


Dorset Coroner's Court has been told the footballer was identified by finger print evidence.

Brendan Allen, acting senior coroner for Dorset, adjourned proceedings until November 6 for a pre-inquest review after hearing an Air Accident Investigation report into the incident will not be published for six to 12 months. An interim report is due within a fortnight.


The hearing, which lasted five minutes and took place at Bournemouth Town Hall in the absence of members of Sala's family, was adjourned until November.

The Argentine footballer was travelling from Nantes to Cardiff in a light aircraft flown by pilot David Ibbotson when it lost contact with air traffic control over the Channel north of Guernsey on January 21.

Sala's body was recovered from the underwater wreckage last week and brought to shore at Portland, which is why the inquest is taking place in Dorset.

This is incredibly sad but not unexpected, as the sequence of events on impact will be similar to that of a 'head on' road traffic collision :cry:

Closure for the family and friends of Emiliano Sala is getting closer and we can only pray the same occurs for pilot Dave Ibbotson and his family and friends :cry:

Very very sad.

Hopefully the body of David Ibbotson can be found as soon as possible.

Chris, in a way it's what i'd hoped for as opposed to (a less instant) drowning.

Andrew, it would almost certainly have been instant and of some comfort to his family

In a morbid way the best result we could have wished for! Instant impact as apposed to drowning. RIP Emiliano.

Does that sort of detail really need to be reported on. Have some respect to his family and loved ones. It looks like he died so quickly :( :( :(

The pilot last report, he was 8.08 miles high from land. & reports said there was hardly any impact, because they came down so slow. & Sala died from head injuries and had to be identified by his fingerprints.. something don’t add up here.

Mixed feelings on this, in a way it’s good he didn’t suffer drowning but still a sad sad situation, sounds like it was instant :(

Thought the same as you. The AIIB has not had the opportunity to check the aircraft, so to the best of my knowledge, no-one has any idea as to how hard it hit the water, or anything else for that matter. The injuries would suggest the impact was a lot more than gliding down to the surface of the sea, and the fact that it suddenly vanished off radar with no distress call also suggests that this was no attempted controlled descent onto the water.

Such a tragic loss for everyone and it looks like the plane hit the water quickly. To me it doesn't add up and something is still amiss but the experts will investigate and come to the right conclusion.

If he didn't have a seat belt on its conceivable that even with a controlled landing he could have been violently thrown forward. Surface tension on water is very high especially for an item coming in at speed. Surface tension increases with lower temperature too so an even harder force

David Mearns said the plane was 'all there', he did not say it was in one piece or in good condition. It's possible to see substantial damage in the one picture that has been released. This doesn't surprise me. RIP Emiliano.

My guess unfortunately, is that if the pitot tubes and wing controls had iced up, Mr Ibbotson would not have known his altitude or speed, and would not have been likely to have been able to make any adjustments. Coupled with the likelihood of it being pitch dark with the time of day and weather conditions, he would have been unlikely to even know where the sea level was. Even a free-falling object travels @ 120 mph never mind being powered.
So sad R.I.P. Emiliano and David.

No offence intended, but his name is Emiliano or to his friends & family Emi, never Emil :thumbup: :bluebird:

Being a season ticket holder living in Bournemouth it’s so surreal his body is being held not far from where I live ☹️ Such a sad situation but the lads are doing the business on the pitch for Emiliano and David

Reading this. Its been going through my mind all day. If the plane crashed so hard it killed Sala. What happened to the pilot, and where did he go?

Unfortunately he had been in the sea for a while Ibby. I am no scientist, but I believe your body starts to decompose almost immediately after death. Even though cold salt water slows the process down, I would think he would be in a bad way after spending so much time submerged before they were able to recover him. All sounds very gruesome I'm afraid, and probably better not to dwell on this too much.

Thanks for clearing it up guys for me. I find things very hard to understand at times. Poor Sala and may God bless his soul. He will never be forgotten, proper tragic story. I hope now David can be found.

Ive read your post above. You know nothing about what speed the plane was traveling at. Your post is a contradict, because if the plane hit water at that speed it would be in a million pieces. In fact, its not. And furter it looks like from the pictures that the door is open. And still we have a pilot missing. Where did he go at that speed? Vanish into thin air?

I merely pointed out that the plane could not have entered the sea at less than 120 mph. Terminal velocity. Pure physics. That would be if it just dropped out of the sky with no propulsion. It was probably being driven at a greater speed than that. It would depend at what angle the plane entered the sea as to the amount of damage. Planes are designed to be streamlined to cut through the air to allow them to fly. As to your your question as to where Mr Ibbotson's body lies, it could be well away from the wreckage by now. Did you read about the poor man from Carmarthen who went missing off the beach in the middle of November? His body was washed up on a beach in North Devon in the middle of January. I hope they find Mr. Ibbotson's body soon.

What will also happen to Sala twitter page, will the family request it closed or will it be there for memory. I guess this twitter account will be brought up in the properly in the inquested about how he was so happy joining Cardiff.

I believe the club have offered to fly his body back to Argentina to be buried there. I don't know what will be done to his twitter account.
