Chilling last picture of smiling millionaire family before they 'died in private jet crash'

This is the unsettling final image of a missing millionaire family hours before their deaths in a suspected private jet crash. Rainer Schaller, 53, from Germany, is understood to have been on a flight earlier this week from Mexico to Limon with his partner, Christiane Schikorksy, and their kids, Aaron and Finja.

The family were onboard the Piaggio 180 jet that was travelling towards Juan Santamaría airport, when it seemingly vanished off the coast of Costa Rica. Their chilling final snapshot together shows the family of four all smiling into the camera as they huddled together for a group selfie, the Mirror reports.

Marcus Kurreck, who is understood to be a personal trainer, was also onboard the aircraft, with Costa Rica's public security minister, Jorge Torres, confirming that the five German nationals were onboard the missing jet. The aircraft reportedly lost communication with the airport's control tower at around 6pm when it was soaring 20 miles off the coast near the Parismina area.
