R.I.P to the crew.
A sense of humour must be maintained at all times.

Just woke up, checked my Facebook and realized I know one of the pilots in the crash :cry: prayers to his wife and son along with the rest of the families affected by this. I won't post his name here since its not public yet but just know he was an awesome guy, and he loved his job and will definitely be missed.

RIP

Names are now public. I went to Embry Riddle with Sean and we had a lot of the same friends, he was an awesome guy, full of humor and just a genuinely kind guy. My heart goes out to his wife and young son, along with the rest families of the crew.

Found out today that Sean was actually featured in the National Geographic docu series "Inside Combat Rescue". Here is a deleted scene with him :
