UK Ferry Pilot Down

Breaking news, looks like a UK ferry pilot has gone down shortly after departing Bangor Maine KBGR en route to Russia via Goose Bay and Iceland. The aircraft left independance factory last week and sat the weekend out in Bangor awaiting more favourable weather. Shortly after leaving Bangor earlier today, the pilot reported picking up ice and looked like he was trying to make it back to Bangor but went down about 20 miles short into a side channel. The name hasnt been released yet but it was definately a UK pilot who was delivering to a flying school in St Petersburg.
