The crash killed 227 passengers and 30 crew. Forty-four people were never identified during the search and recovery operations. New Zealand's population was then only around three million people. As people said at the time, almost everyone was somehow connected to the Erebus disaster, whether through knowing a victim, a member of the many heroic recovery operations, or taking sides in the lengthy legal battle that ensued. | |
