Italian who missed AF 447 flight dies in car crash

An Italian woman who arrived to the airport late for the fatal Air France flight 447 has died in a car accident, according to ANSA news agency.

Johanna Ganthaler, a pensioner from the Bolzano-Bozen Province (South Tyrol, Italy) and her husband, Kirk, were on vacation in Brazil and missed flight 447 after arriving to the airport late. They were able to board a later flight and avoided being victims of the horrible crash.

The couple rented a car in Munich, Germany and decided to drive home to Italy. On their way home, while driving through Kufstein, Austria, their car ended up in the opposite lane and they had a head on collision with a truck.

The woman died at the hospital that she was taken to. Her husband is still in critical condition.

That is such a sad story. You escape death in one tragic accident only to die in another a few days later.

which is why it is not worth worrying about because when your time is up..your time is up...and when its not...its not.... and no amount of anything is going to change it

My dad told me that when your number is up it is up-the trick is not to fly on someone else's number!

I try not to look at the numbers or step on anyone else's. Life is confusing enough. I just hope when mine comes up (it will,) I can say "Love ya, loved it all, no regrets."

Amen and amen, V O.

like my favorite line in the musical 'rent', "forget regret or life is yours to miss".

 

[Voosh]

Perfect line "gram." Now explain that to the North Koreans. Oops! Probably should've put this in EE.

 

[GramChop]

no, if you put it in EE, voosh, you'll get fred and skeeter involved! :laugh: :blush:

oh wait...this IS EE...my bad!

See what happens when my GPS burps and a good ole compass, charts and decongestants aren't around? I sniff, slobber and always find my way back home and to St. Bart.

it is my belief that when something like that (flight 447 )happens....everyone whose number was up..was drawn together....nothing is random...its all by design

All relative, right?

Bad luck?
She got another week out of it, compared to the people that made the plane. Wouldn't YOU take it?
