KEY POINTS:
The wreckage of a twin-engine Cessna 337 Skymaster, flown by a man who had worked as a crop-duster pilot in New Zealand, was found last night.
The plane piloted by Geoff Milne, accompanied by his wife Mathilde, their son and his girlfriend, disappeared after taking off from Moorabbin Airport, Melbourne, on Saturday.
Mr Milne was formerly based in New Zealand as an agricultural operator. The wreckage with three bodies on board was located near Wilsons Promontory, southwest of Melbourne.
There was no sign of the fourth person. The aircraft was spotted after an air, land and sea search. Twenty-three aircraft were involved.
