A body has been found in the search for three crew missing from an Irish Coast Guard helicopter that crashed into the Atlantic over a week ago.
The discovery was confirmed after eight dives were carried out on the wreckage of Rescue 116 off Blackrock island, about 13km off the coast of Co Mayo.
The body was in the cockpit of the helicopter wreckage on the seabed in 40m of water.
The body of Captain Dara Fitzpatrick, a 45-year-old mother-of-one, was the first one of the four crew to have been recovered from the ocean.
