Álvarez later took off in another aircraft to search for Bertazzo and reportedly found his body in a field around 15 to 20 minutes after the alarm was raised

Álvarez is the company director, not the student

Eduardo Álvarez, director of Flying Parrot Córdoba, praised the student for keeping control of the plane during an extreme emergency.
