We are hearing the pilot suffered a broken back in the accident, no information on the other passenger other than he is in the hospital as well. We've used Republic for many years, and wish the pilot a speedy recovery.
The gentleman that was killed has also done a lot of contract work for us offshore in the Gulf, and was a good worker. Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family and loved ones.
