Tax Evader posted on the same thread in GD saying that he has heard McRae was on board.

This is sickening news.

I'm not bleating about the duplicate post, just linking the two.

Sad sad news, regardless of who was involved.

On another forum, reports that him a co-pilot and two children on board. Not confirmed just someone who said his friend works in emergency services call centre. Although he did mention Mcrae before any news outlets did so not looking too good.
