Thank you for pointing at an additional problem of the media coverage. IMHO lots of the journalists didn't report in an ethical acceptable way. Besides the discussion of how old the aircraft was.

There was no need to show the images of the home of the pilot and the parents.

The parents/family has to carry a large burden for the rest of the life. Then publishing the full address and showing the police taking out the proofs was bad style (and unacceptable).
