Who is Myron William Love: Sydney Teacher Confirmed as Australian on Board Plane that Crashed in Nepal
A young Sydney teacher, Myron William Love, has been confirmed as the Australian on board a Yeti Airlines plane that crashed during a flight from Kathmandu to Pokhara on Sunday, killing all passengers. The Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT) on Monday said it was “urgently seeking to confirm the welfare of the Australian” on board. Yeti Airlines has since told the ABC there are no survivors.
Key points:
- A source says the Sydney man and his long-term partner were soulmates
- The Yeti Airlines flight was en route to Pokhara from Kathmandu
- The passengers represented a number of nationalities including Russian and French
- There were 72 people on board, in what is the country’s worst air disaster in 30 years.
Myron Love and his Partner: “Soulmates”
A source described Mr Love and his long-term partner as “soulmates” and said the situation was “devastating”. The couple had been together for a long time, and their friends and family are mourning the loss of Myron.
Investigation into the Crash that involved Myron William Love
Nepal has begun a national day of mourning as aviation authorities say they have found the voice and flight data recorders. Arnico Panday, an adviser to Nepal’s minister of home affairs, said the government had set up a panel to investigate the cause of the disaster. “There is a large public fear that this will end up as a report on the shelf somewhere, as happened after previous crashes,” he said. “And our strong stance in our party, and the minister himself, is that’s not enough. We have to make sure that such crashes don’t happen again.”
The Passengers Represented a Number of Nationalities
The passengers represented a number of nationalities, with the country’s civil aviation authority confirming them as: 53 Nepalese, five Indians, four Russians, two Koreans, one Australian, one Argentinian, one Irish and one French. In Nepal, distraught families gathered at Kathmandu airport for information on the plane, that went down during a 27-minute flight, crashing about 10:50am local time.
The Plane’s Descent
An airport spokesperson said the twin-engine ATR 72 was “cruising at 12,500 feet and was on a normal descent”. The weather on the day was also clear. Videos posted to social media showed the plane flying low before sharply rolling in the air and disappearing out of frame. One local captured the plane’s descent on his iPhone. Diwas Bohora said he was sitting on his terrace when he noticed the plane approaching the airport at a low altitude. Footage shows the plane descending and crashing into a nearby ravine.
Difficulties in Navigating the Terrain
Nepal’s mountainous terrain can make it difficult for pilots to navigate. Helicopters and emergency services including the army, firefighters and the Himalayan Rescue Association were immediately sent to the crash site to commence the search and rescue operation. Rescue workers had to rappel down a 300-metre gorge to search for bodies after the plane split into pieces.
The Aftermath of the Crash
As the news of the tragic crash spread, the families of the victims were left in a state of shock and despair. The Nepalese government immediately declared a national day of mourning as aviation authorities began their investigation into the cause of the disaster. Arnico Panday, an adviser to Nepal’s minister of home affairs, announced that a panel had been set up to investigate the crash, stating that “there is a large public fear that this will end up as a report on the shelf somewhere, as happened after previous crashes. And our strong stance in our party, and the minister himself, is that’s not enough. We have to make sure that such crashes don’t happen again.”
The incident has sparked a renewed call for improved safety measures in Nepal’s aviation industry, which has been plagued by a number of fatal accidents in recent years. The country’s mountainous terrain can make it difficult for pilots to navigate, and many have called for better training and technology to ensure the safety of passengers in the future.
Meanwhile, the families of the victims continue to grieve and pay their respects to their loved ones. Tributes have poured in for Myron William Love, the Australian man who was on board the flight. He has been described as “kind” and “energetic” by those who knew him, and his long-term partner has spoken of their deep love for one another. The situation is truly devastating for the families and friends of the victims, and their thoughts and condolences are with them during this difficult time.
