@Dr.Theo...this is a small charter company in the Philippines, no relation at all to the Lion Air in Indonesia.

Awful!!

The twin-jet West Wind 24 plane was carrying three medical personnel, three flight crew, a patient and a companion, Richard Gordon, a senator and head of the Philippine Red Cross, said on Twitter.

Appears they were flying a ""VIP"" patient back to Japan...…..

RIP to the victims. Lion Air has a horrible safety record. I’d never ever fly them.
