‘My sister Heather’s survival is miraculous’

THE brother of the only woman on tragic flight NM7100 has described her survival as miraculous and paid a deeply moving tribute to Cork city’s emergency services.

“It is almost miraculous. No less. I can’t explain it,” Heather Elliot’s brother, David Peare, said.

And he said he got a sense from his sister that Thursday’s accident, which claimed the lives of six people, was “needless”.
