 <\/p>\n

The family of an aviation buff who died in a plane crash have described him as \u2018the kindest person you could meet\u2019.<\/p>\n

Mustafa Qays Obadey, 39, suffered fatal\u00a0injuries\u00a0alongside Arian Abassi in an aircraft which plunged into farmland after taking off at\u00a0<\/a>Birmingham<\/a>\u00a0airport.<\/p>\n

The pair took off in a Cirrus SR20 G6 Premium Platinum plane on February 3, and an investigation is underway into the crash.<\/p>\n

A parachute was seen caught in a pylon close to the crash site in the\u00a0Lancashire<\/a>\u00a0moors.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

A spokesperson for his family said: \u2018He was the most humble, kind man you\u2019ll ever meet. A man made of peace. The glue of the family and community. Always available and accepting for everyone. Thank you Mustafa.\u2019<\/p>\n

The plane crashed near Rochdale and the investigation is being lead by\u00a0Greater Manchester Police<\/a>\u00a0and the Air Accident Investigation Branch.<\/p>\n

Nersess Siragan, who worked with Mr Obadey, wrote in a tribute on\u00a0Facebook<\/a>: \u2018You\u2019ll never get a chance to say goodbye to loved ones until it\u2019s too late. My friend Mustafa died in a plane crash in\u00a0Manchester<\/a>. He was such a lovely young man, always cheerful and an optimist.<\/p>\n

\u2018I can\u2019t imagine going to\u00a0work<\/a>\u00a0and not seeing him. My heart goes out to his mother, father, brothers and his children.\u2019 \u2018I\u2019m sure you\u2019re in a better place now.
\n\u2018God bless your soul and rest in peace.\u2019<\/p>\n

Another tribute online said: \u2018The other man who died in the crash is Mustafa Obadey who shared a passion for flying.<\/p>\n

\u2018He was a very popular person and loved by everyone who met him, and a good friend of mine. I remember a few weeks ago he showed me pictures of the low wing plane and it\u2019s modern avionics.\u2019<\/p>\n

Arian Abbasi, 36, was one of two men sadly pronounced dead at the scene in Littleborough, Rochdale on Tuesday.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Last week, Mr Abassi\u2019s family described him as a \u2018deeply loving father and a devoted husband\u2019.<\/p>\n

\u2018He lived his life for his family and friends, giving them his constant love, strength, and support.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u2018Flying was his passion, and he was on the brink of beginning an exciting new chapter with\u00a0a commercial airline\u00a0on 23 February;\u00a0a dream he had worked toward with immense pride and determination.\u2019<\/p>\n

Officers\u00a0are searching for\u00a0part of the parachute system which\u00a0contains\u00a0propellant.<\/p>\n

A Greater Manchester Police spokesman said: \u2018The nature of the terrain, and the wide area over which it may have travelled, has made finding the device\u00a0very difficult.\u2019<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
