Kaptein døde - Curt Lewis

Incident: Etihad B772 near Kuwait on Sep 27th 2017, captain incapacitated and died

An Etihad Airways Boeing 777-200 freighter, registration A6-DDE performing freight flight EY-927 from Abu Dhabi (United Arab Emirates) to Amsterdam (Netherlands) with 4 crew, was enroute at FL320 about 130nm southeast of Kuwait City (Kuwait) when the captain, who had increasingly felt unwell, became incapacitated prompting the first officer to declare Mayday and divert the aircraft to Kuwait, where the aircraft landed safely about 25 minutes later. Medics awaiting the aircraft could not help the captain anymore, who needed to be pronounced dead on arrival.

The airline reported they are deeply saddened to report the passing of their captain.
