Sorry to hear, this is a tough industry when someone makes a mistake or a problem occurs.

RIP

I wish the best for the families. The last accident with a twin in my area, my MEI and his student were able to live, but this is sucks. RIP my winged brethren.

I'm always sad to hear my fellow brethren fly west at such an early age. My condolences to the families and friends of the recently lost. RIP.

I just clicked this thread out of curiosity and was shocked to discover the identities of the victims. My First Officer and I were in line with them at Customs in PBI. The whole group was very happy and seemed to have enjoyed their trip to the islands. We spoke with them briefly before we all went on our ways. Looking at our log for the day we departed shortly before they did.

My thoughts and prayers for their families and friends.
