Today being double 8 date, a year from the supposedly auspicious 8/8/8 should be a good day to remember our fallen colleagues. To the young uns in MAS, if you care to ask around, you will probably find veterans willing to fill you in on this tragic flight.

The gallant crew members were,

Technical aircrew :

Captain G K Ganjoor ( aka Babu )
F/O Kamarulzaman Jalil

Cabin crew :
Sharifah
Sidah Syed Mohammad
Azian Borhanuddin
Karim Tahir
Onn Jaafar

Of course not forgetting the innocent ones amongst the esteemed passengers who chose air travel with our then fledging flag carrier.
Though tragic, we honour their place in Malaysian history.
