Thank You Club Deportivo Jorge Wilstermann for your recent tribute in memory of Ivo Daniel Martínez Velásquez:
In Memory of Ivo Daniel Martínez Velásquez
Ivo Daniel Martínez Velásquez died on Saturday, June 29th, 2024 in a plane crash near Toro Toro, Bolivia while flying his personal small acrobatic plane. The DGAC also announced the death of Javier Asin, who was accompanying Ivo on the flight.

Ivo worked with our counterpart organization Mano a Mano Aviation for nearly 2 decades and was the lead pilot for more than a decade, personally flying hundreds of flights annually (and more than half of Mano a Mano Aviation’s flight hours) to provide emergency flights, weekend health clinics, and cargo transport for isolated rural communities throughout Bolivia. Our sincere best wishes and condolences to the many friends and family of both Ivo and Javier.
