Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Yesterday a small airplane crashed on the Vallugabahn cable. Pilot died.
Airplane came from Zell am See, pilot remains unknown, but is no Austrian (...?)
Both gondola's were in the station at the moment of crash.
Unclear is whether the cable is damaged.

Speculation in German Media that the Pilot was German. Not Confirmed.

It was suppose to be a Local Flight...a little bit off course Salzburg to Voralburg if that was the case.

Obviously did not look out for the Aerial cable Warning Signs!

I expect they will have to get out this kind of kit

The British Millionaire-Hotel is the typical thing in Lech the last few years. Millionaires starting a hotel, as it is the only way to buy/own real-estate in Lech.
Hotel Aurelio by Oleg Deripaska, and the Chalet N by René Benko.

But this latest British 'start-up' is a bit sad actually, as it is in Stubenbach, least favorable part of Lech; not a 5***** location at all......

I have no idea who this or why it's failed, but it seems a very odd time for British person to be investing in a project funded in Euros.

@sah, Read some of the comments. Especially why it was costing €25M when something like that would normally be about €8M ..

Soon as Liechienstein is mentioned something smells..

It's rumoured that Andrew John Flowers' "bancruptcy" might be a trick to change his newly built "Blumen" 5*****hotel in Stubenbach (Lech) into private apartments (which are notoriously hard -impossible- to buy in Lech.

Austrian newspaper elegantly points to the fact that Stubenbach up till now used to be the place were only staff working in Lech was sleeping Cool
