A couple good friends of mine are missing right now. I spoke with alex probably no less than two weeks ago when trying to start a poker game. Wreckage of missing skydiving plane found - CNN.com
I heard on the radio that they recovered 7 bodies so far. I'm sorry if your friends was some of them.
This is horrible. I'm out of the loop 100% righ tnow being up at school. Alex and Cecil both go here. .
weird.... you would think a bunch of skydivers would have bailed if the plane was going down, no? i dunno... just seems fishy. all the best
at this point the only peace to really hold onto is they died doing something they wanted to do. . . i still hope for some survivors though...
So I just read that Andy was found, alex' twin that I was trying to call was in the wreckage. But I'm seeing a lot of posts that cecil, and alex are still missing. Alex and Andy are twins. All three went to my high school, and alex, and cecil both go to western. I was un aware they were both on the plane, I'm not sure what's going on. I'm reading a lot of contradicting stories, and I'm completely lost up here.
A camper said the plan was flying very low, no one probably expected for it to crash - hence no one jumping out of the plane. This is pretty scary considering I'm setting up a skydiving trip, as we speak. Best regards Jordan and I hope your friends turn out to be okay.
And this happened at night if I'm not mistaken.. CNN said they were on the way to a big skydiver meeting, so its entirely possible that they weren't suited up, but just riding in.
They were on their way back from one and were jumping all weekend in boise, ID. RIP Andy Smith & Cecil Elsner.
I assume the worst has been discovered? Thats tragic but hopefully they went out after doing something they were passionate about and love - at least thats the way I hope I go down.
I'm sorry to hear this. *hugs* My condolences to you and the families involved. I can't imagine what it will be like for the twin *sad*
yea...i read an article this morning that said all of the bodies have been found...very sad...that this had to happen...
Update: Thanks guys for the support. I saw my buddy alex, andy's twin the other day on campus. Gave him a big hug and stuff. Probably get him over for poker/partying this weekend and go see the fam or something. This is just still surreal though.
