Let's hope it wasn't another ejection seat failure. The engineer died. I'm assuming they have command eject selected if possible. Especially when transporting non pilot types.

I used to do exactly the same job many years ago and although a job of a lifetime, makes me feel very lucky to be here

Very sad day for the team
