POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
A small sick aircraft with 4 crew members- all highly experiened- crashes at a construction site in Mumbai. All crew and one man on ground were killed in the accident. It appears that the crew were reluctant to take off on the sick aircraft in bad weather.

whodunit - a complex crime story where murderer is revealed in the end. Here although it doesn't seem like premeditated, it is certainly reckless and careless to allow it to take off;
premonitions-it appears the crew were extremely reluctant to fly in bad weather and also seeing the sick state of aircraft
crass-stupid
callous-careless
dash-the hurry to take off
splash- a sensational news in the papers
