Emiliano Sala: Seat Cushions From Missing Plane Found On French Beach

Two seat cushions have been found which are likely to have come from the plane carrying missing Cardiff City footballer Emiliano Sala, investigators said.

The Air Accidents Investigation Branch (AAIB) confirmed in a statement that French authorities had located parts of two seat cushions on a beach in Surtainville, north western France.

“On the morning of Monday, January 28, we were advised by the Bureau d’Enquetes d’Analyses, the French safety investigation authority, that part of a seat cushion had been found on a beach near Surtainville on the Cotentin Peninsula,” the AAIB said.

“A second cushion was found in the same area later that day,” it added. “From a preliminary examination, we have concluded that it is likely that the cushions are from the missing aircraft.”
