[QUOTE="Decoligny, post: 3286612, member: 41077"] It crashed on Tuesday, 1 Oct 2019. Seven people died. Those who survived owe their lives to Air National Guard Command Chief Master Sergeant James Traficante. Out of habit engrained from many years of flying, he brought his heat resistant Nomex gloves with him on the flight, even though he was just a passenger. This allowed him to be able to open an extremely hot escape hatch and drag another injured passenger to safety, and also allowed other surviving passengers to escape the flames. [/QUOTE]
