The victims of the fatal crash Sachs, along with Hollywood actor Christian Klepser, 51, from the USA, and his two daughters, Madita Klepser (10) and Annik Klepser (12), were recovered from the wreckage by local divers and handed over to the Coast Guard.

Several social media users took to Facebook to express their condolences, while one user named John Stephens also explained what the coastguard said. "That isn't true. The coastguard said that they didn't have any divers, so they were not prepared to do any search and rescue. It was the local fishermen of Paget Farm, along with other divers, who had to go and retrieve the bodies that were on the plane," he said. "Capt should have never attempted to turn back a low and slow single-engine aircraft experiencing engine problems. A straight ahead emergency ditching could have saved their lives" wrote another named Newman Knight.

Christian Oliver Klepser was known for his role in the original series, "Saved by the Bell". The show was aired from 1989 - 1992. His acting profile had more than 60 entries showing he appeared in big films like Speed Racer and Valkyrie - ane even had a recent role in the latest Indiana Jones movie.
