Which these guys didn´t.
I myself strap the regulator beneath my right shoulder belt while strapped so that I can reach the regulator.
Didn´t see the regulator anywhere close in the clip with the cockpit cam.

So sorry to see this, I was to fly to Dubai last night from Kuwait, I heard of the accident around 6 pm (local), shortly there after they announced they were cancelling todays event.
I certainly respect that choice! I hope that they will study this accident and improve safety features. God Speed Team Victory.
