'A Pan American jumbo jet with more than 250 people on board has crashed tonight in the Scottish Borders. At midnight, five hours later, I got through to the Pan Am desk and asked if Flora had been on the flight. Two hundred and seventy murders in a second — parents, sons, daughters, children, babes, entire families on the plane and in the town itself. TV crews swarmed across the tiny Scottish town.
