Emergency responders started to drill holes into solid rocks at the gullies of Mayon Volcano to set up the anchor bolts that would aid in retrieving the bodies of the four people on board the Cessna plane that crashed on Feb. 18. | MaAprilMierINQ /PDI
Camalig Mayor Carlos Irwin Baldo Jr., the incident commander, said they augmented the teams at the site with persons who could help install anchors, bolts, ropes and safety lines needed by those who would be bringing down the bodies of the plane’s passengers.
They had to suspend the retrieval operations on Thursday afternoon due to poor visibility caused by heavy fog and the danger of moving on unstable ground and loose soil. Crisostomo and Martin were employees of the Energy Development Corp. , the largest geothermal energy producer in the Philippines, while the Australians were technical consultants of the company.
It added: “We have released such photos to the media and through our social media pages to be used, for everyone to be reminded of the beautiful people that they are.” But as of Friday, the wreckage of the Gen AV Cessna 206 plane or its six passengers had not been located.
