Correct Ed! The accident occurred in Aruba, which is a country of the
Kingdom of the Netherlands. They called it a mast in the Mas FM article,
linked below, which is written in Papiamento. I am not sure why this
terminology is such an issue on towertalk.  R.I.P. Ben

Europeans use the words tower and mast pretty interchangeably in my
