Believed to be a Cessna T303 Crusader – possibly Perranporth-based, which more or less conclusively identifies one aircraft.
At this stage it is probably right for us not to publish the registration or ownership.

Very sad for all concerned when something like this happens.

Yeah, just read that 🙁 Tragic.
If the aircraft involved is the one I’ve seen in pictures so far, then it’s one I have photographed at Perranporth when I was based there.

The worst possible news I am afraid.
Both occupants confirmed dead

Was reading about this not long ago, apparently still not found 🙁
Possibly Perranporth based? Where I used to be based before moving to MK.
