Sounds like possibly a Mesa pilot jumpseating.

Are there normally 3 crew operating a 767 for Atlas or was one of the occupants a jumpseater?

They were reporting it was a Mesa jumpseater earlier. Don’t know if that was ever confirmed.

My condolences to the Atlas family.

Looks a little more interesting than "light to heavy precip." But wx is basically subjective anyway.

It was confirmed to be one of the Amazon birds earlier.

Heartbreaking. My sincere condolences to the family and friends and of course, Godspeed to the crew.

This image appears to be west of the crash site. From everything I’ve seen it was in the extreme northeastern corner of the bay near Anahuac. That’s probably 8-10 miles east of Baytown as you see on your image.

The radar image is time stamped as 1238. Was the crash at 1245?

Does anyone have the names of the crew members on board?
