FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Georgetown, Guyana — April 13, 2026
The Alliance For Change (AFC) extends its deepest condolences to the family, friends, and colleagues affected by the tragic crash of an Air Services Limited aircraft in the hinterland (Region 8) of Guyana.
We are profoundly saddened by reports that the aircraft, which was operating in Region 8, has been located with the loss of the life of the pilot confirmed. Even a single loss of life under such circumstances is a tragedy that touches the entire nation.
The AFC acknowledges and commends the swift response of the Guyana Defense Force Special Forces and all emergency personnel involved in the search and recovery operations, which were undertaken under very challenging conditions. Their dedication and professionalism in the face of adversity are deserving of national recognition.
At this time of grief, we stand in solidarity with the aviation community, the staff of Air Services Limited, and all those impacted by this heartbreaking incident. We urge that every effort be made to provide support to the bereaved and to conduct a thorough and transparent investigation into the cause of the crash to help prevent future tragedies.
The AFC calls on all Guyanese to keep the affected families in their thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.
May the departed rest in peace.
