Keep up our prayers for their coming back to their love ones. Their disappearance does not seem normal to me Very shallow waters and no big portion of the aircraft was found. With all the modern gadgets , why are they still not found ?

You know, they should wear life Jackets on air and ware. All the Fisherman should also wear their life Jackets. I've been saying this in 2 years now ,that the Fisherman, the Pilots, during flood or storm , Filipinos should wear life Jackets. I don't understand those fisherman were not wearing Life Jackets when they go Fishing .

German diver suffers accident during search ops

MANILA, Philippines (2nd UPDATE)- Diving operations at the plane crash site in Masbate were temporarily aborted when one of the technical divers met an accident at sea.
DZMM’s Edwin Sevidal reported that a German diver came out of the sea foaming at the mouth.

“Isang technical diver, naka-stretcher, bumubula ang bibig. Mabilis siyang isinakay sa ambulansya,” said Sevidal.

The diver was identified as Danny Brumbach.

Sevidal said Brumbach was conscious when he was placed into a rubber boat.

The diver was part of a German team who volunteered to help in the retrieval operations for Interior and Local Government Secretary Jesse Robredo and 2 others.

"My concern is my divers under water, they're still decompressing... so we immediately aborted the diving operations. Aborted muna because we have to take care of the divers muna to make sure that my divers are okay,” said Capt. Rommel Galang of the Philippine Navy. Galang is overseeing the diving operations.

The diver was initially brought to the hospital only to be taken back to the command outpost as he needed to undergo a decompression procedure.

Brumbach was taken to a ship of the Philippine Coast Guard where a decompression chamber is available.

"Ibinalik s'ya because nobody was aware of what really happened, so the immediate reaction is to bring him to the hospital,” explained Maj. Gen. Eduardo del Rosario, head of Task Force Kalihim, which supervises the retrieval operations.

Brumbach is an open water scuba instructor based in Bohol.

He is a member of the Professional Association of Diving Instructors (PADI).

The search teams recovered on Tuesday morning Robredo from the crash site.

The bodies of Capt. Jessup Bahinting and his Nepalese co-pilot, Capt. Kshitiz Chand, have yet to be retrieved.

Authorities earlier said they will already be using a remotely-operated underwater vehicle (ROV) since divers will need to rest.

Daily Horoscope for May 21

Cancer

Take care because it's a rather downbeat day. You feel as though you have the cares of the world on your shoulders, and maybe you have. You've certainly got to cope with a lot of responsibility and duty, and there could also be delays and disappointments that need to be negotiated. Yes, it's a fairly miserable day but try to rise above it, otherwise you'll soon start to feel really wretched and sorry for yourself.
