....snipped...Ashraf Hamid was a dual Egyptian-Canadian citizen in his early 40s. He had lived with his father in Montreal in his mid-teens and graduated from Riverdale High School in Pierrefonds before going back to Egypt to live with his mother and study to be a pilot.

He was aboard Flash Airlines Flight FSH604 on Saturday - not piloting, but as part of a relief crew - when the 11-year-old Boeing 737 crashed in about 800 metres of water after leaving Sharm el-Shekh airport.

Yesterday, a Canadian Department of Foreign Affairs official visited Hamid's two Canadian-born daughters in Brampton, Ont. to tell them their father died and that they had been named in his will, said the pilot's father...

I just put Ashraf Hamid in as a search term on that Twexus site.

The search terms with this pic http://www.twexus.com/?f=inf&ino=404248-LDT , associated with Ashraf, has a bunch of names at the bottom.

The search terms associated with Hamid, http://www.twexus.com/?f=inf&ino=432745-BL has a woman laying on the floor? And look at the search terms below. Emirates Airlines?

Thanks for another interesting post on the Red Sea crash. You've really been on top of this story today. It's frustrating that we can't get any open-minded discussion from any media outlet on this. It's as though it's been deliberatley blacked out. Normally, this would be such a high profile story because of the state of alert we are currently in and the security problems with international airlines. I just don't get it.
