    Reports indicate Lundström — one of the main primary financiers of website The Pirate Bay — died in an incident involving his own private aeroplane.

      That article surely is a ride, I mean…

      The right-wing party Alternative for Sweden, for which Lundström ran in the 2021 elections, confirmed his death in a Facebook post on Tuesday.

      Didn’t know he was right-wing.

      On Monday, rescue teams discovered parts of the plane inside the cabin but were unable to identify the pilot.

      Sounds like a movie plot.

      Lundström was the heir to Swedish crisp bread producer Wasabröd.

      Heh.

        To be honest, crashing a small plane in that area is not that out of the ordinary, I happen to know some people who died there in a plane crash. The more open airspaces there have a low ceiling, and there is a lot of bad visiblility and high mountains. If the weather is not good, you simply shouldn’t fly, or go higher and file IFR, otherwise it’s very dangerous for CFIT incidents.

            Thanks, I was on my phone and I am awful at typing stuff out so I tend towards brevity without noticing.
