Nice looking family, really sad.

That poor family and that poor girl. At times like this, it’s tempting to say “we have to do something”, such as, ban small children or whole families from flying in small aircraft, but families exactly like that took equal or far greater risks just being pioneers in this land at one point.
It’s a shame they weren’t in that Cirrus SR22, because then they would have at least had the BRS to fall back on. Of course, there are not enough seats on the Cirrus for such a large family. I don’t know if there are any general aviation parachute equipped six-passenger aircraft.
