Re: Gulf sheikh Ahmed bin Zayed al-Nahyan missing after plane crash
Take it this is not the same company that EM referred to yesterday
Totally agree. Of a team of 10, we officially went down to 1 today. I survived but I suspect that is because I'm an accountant and am needed to shut the rest of it down.
Where do I work I hear you ask? Contractor? Real Estate? Manufacturing? No... One of the Abu Dhabi sovereign wealth funds...

I know it's not the way here, but if indeed he is dead, having two minutes silence at the World Cup would surely have been a better solution than this silly fabrication.
Sincerely hope it turns out he has survived the crash and will be OK.

Would have been very strange to find the pilot and not the passenger for sure. If the aircraft crashed into a lake as reported you'd be looking for a body not a survivor after even a few minutes.

According to the Dean's current avatar, Sheikh Ahmed would appear to have already passed away.

I am surprised this isn't getting more international coverage as the UAE news sites (including Dubai One news) seem to be almost ignoring it completely.

Maybe someone found him and is nursing him back to health.

The local guy who lives next door to us has just had his full back window of his Landcruiser covered in a picture of the missing Shiekh. Ive seen two more today while driving in Abu Dhabi.
