  It's 20 years to the day since this event. I'm guessing that's the reason this was posted now?

    Yes. Newspapers here in Sweden ran different kinds of "Remember Estonia" articles during the last days. Aftonbladet had a pretty interesting (and very long) article about it: http://story.aftonbladet.se/?id=602 http://story.aftonbladet.se/?id=602 (in Swedish)

      Norwegian Aftenposten also published a pretty good interactive story of the event: http://mm.aftenposten.no/estonia/ http://mm.aftenposten.no/estonia/

    Afaik this transcript is also new (spurred by the 20th anniversary). Oona Räisänen transcribed the recording, and translated the Finnish and Swedish parts into English. I saw her post it on Twitter, and thought it might be of interest here too.
