Young co-pilot identified in Florida plane crash

Mylee Hogan puts a cockpit photograph alongside the emergency recordings in 7NEWS Australia's report on the fatal Florida jet crash. The co-pilot pictured is Nathalia Gadelha, whose identity has been confirmed by her family.

The private business jet was travelling from Austin, Texas, to the Bahamas when it crashed in a residential area of Palm Beach County, killing all nine aboard. The report carries a graphic-material warning before showing dashcam footage of the impact.

Hogan describes radio communications in which a pilot reported ice and turbulence. A later mayday call reported a rapid descent. Investigators are reviewing video and audio to establish the cause; the weather reports alone do not establish what brought the aircraft down.

The identification report drew about 67,000 views within seven hours, already well beyond the channel's usual full-day audience for a Short. It follows several other widely watched 7NEWS Australia updates on the crash, moving the coverage from the initial death toll to the identity of a crew member.
