For what it's worth, I lost a good friend in that crash. His name was Javier and he was the SCCM onboard.
I'd known Javier for many, many, years, both in Astraeus, then Zoom, and latterly at FlyDubai.
My endearing memories of Javier are that he was a consummate professional, charming, hardworking, and always very good fun! Passengers loved him, and so too did the crew. Javier was the epitome of what I would call a 'total aviation person' (
he loved aviation and he loved people). He was such a genuinely lovely bloke and this is such a tragic loss.
RIP my friend.
