The family's death was caught on camera. According to authorities, the plane took off from F Mitchell Airport and was headed to nearby St Lucia when tragedy struck. In a video, an eyewitness is heard saying "the plane crashed - call the Coast Guard."
"Moments after taking off, the aircraft experienced difficulties and plummeted into the ocean," the Royal St. Vincent and the Grenadines Police Force said in a statement. "Fishermen and divers from Paget Farm went to the scene of the incident in their boats to render assistance," it added. All four bodies have been recovered.
Pilot Robert Sachs owned the plane but it is unclear what caused the devastating crash, according to police. The cause remains under investigation. Local reports said pilot Sachs radioed the tower shortly after takeoff to tell them he was experiencing trouble and was turning back. However, that was the last communication.

With gorgeous mountains in the background and some onlookers admiring the coast, Christian's final post left a serene feeling before the ultimate disaster that followed. He wrote across the image: "Let love rule. Wishing you all the best for 2024." In the caption, he again made a nod to the Grenadines beautiful atmosphere. He added: "Greetings from somewhere in paradise! To community and love …2024 her we come!"
