Seat cushions found on French beach in search for missing Isle of Axholme pilot and Cardiff City footballer
Last Monday, the Argentinian striker was being flown from Nantes in France to Cardiff by David Ibbotson, aged 59, from Crowle.
However, nothing has been heard from the aircraft since it disappeared from radar near the Channel Islands, and the official search was called off last week.

This search is taking place in conjunction with a air accident investigation search during which the seat cushions were found on the Cotentin Peninsula in Normandy.
