Geez, Mackenzie looks like he is still in high school.

14. Possibly still in his early 20s. He graduated from a 4-year honors aviation program in 2023. So tragic

that these young pilots lost their lives.

15. My heart is heavy with sorrow.....

Two young men at the start of their journeys only to have it taken away in an instant.
I am sure the controller will bear this enormous burden for the remainder of this life.

I’ve spent 47 years working in this field, part of it with the FAA and I can state with certainty after retiring a few months ago that I’ve never seen the environment as low as it is now. It’s as if the Administration wants to drown and privatize it. The “probable cause” will be issued but these two young men’s families won’t find any solace in an NTSB report, but we can honor them and keep their fires burning but getting involved in what ever way we can.

Of course I don't know them but I'm crying like they're Dear to me. 💔 ☮️🌻🕯️🕊️💜

And, now seeing their pictures.. it's even more heartbreaking. They are so young and full of the joys of life there.

It was such a stupid tragic accident. I'm so sorry it happened.

Mahalo for this Swede.. I was looking for news of them today.. and somehow I missed this until just now.
