Various friends in the sandpit have just been in touch, about a light aircraft incident in Dubai.

First reports are it was operated by a company I previously worked for, as well as Andy R and Dave P. Andy is on his way back from Portugal, so not him. However, if anyone hears of names or anything else I’d appreciate a PM

Just dreadful. My son (who flew with the company concerned) is distraught.
