It seems foolish in retrospect, not only allowing Cecile to fly in her condition, but having all the Hesse and by Rhine males on the plane!

Even if little Princess Johanna had survived 1939, the crash meant that there would no more male line descendants.

I can't help thinking that with her pregnancy so far advanced, she should have stayed at home, leaving her husband and boys to go by themselves.

Even if she had stayed home, the shock of their deaths might have caused her to lose the baby... just look at Buddy Holly's wife after The Day The Music Died.
