In our next few posts, we're going to bring you the latest information we have about some of the crew and passengers who were on board both the American Airlines flight and the US army helicopter, which collided on Wednesday night.
We know already that all 64 people on the passenger plane, and the three on the helicopter, have been killed as a result of the crash. Recovery efforts have been paused due to difficult conditions in the Potomac River, with 28 bodies so far recovered.
The identities of some of those on board have either been confirmed through official channels - such as the Philippine National Police (PNP) saying one of its officers was travelling on the American Airlines flight - or are being heavily reported by US media.
It's those names that you'll see on this page shortly.
As always with a moving situation like this, details are emerging all the time which means it can be hard to keep track of. We'll keep bringing you the latest updates, explainers and analysis right here, as soon as we get them. Stay with us.
