I was going to MHH from MCO yesterday, we were about 5 minutes or so behind the Sky Bahamas Saab. It was looking really nasty over the airport (thunderstorm and extreme precip reported at the time) and the captain and I were discussing diverting because of the wx. Then we heard something on the radio about it, (didn't see it happen) and ended up holding for about 20 minutes, after which we diverted to Treasure.

In the hold we watched as a Bahamas Air Dash pass under us, cancel with "Marsh in sight" and when we landed in TCB, we saw them on the ramp there. Those guys do their own thing.

One of my private pilot students is a FO at Sky on the Saab. I tried to get in contact with him over FB asking if it was him and if he's okay, but I haven't heard from him. Hope this isn't a bad sign.
