The Cessna was registered to Encore Motors of Melbourne, Florida, owned by John and Barbara Rumpel.

John Rumpel told The Washington Post that his “entire family” was onboard, including a daughter, grandchild, and a nanny.

“We know nothing about the crash,” he continued.

“We are talking to the FAA now. … I’ve got to keep the line clear.”
