The British (click here) national on board missing AirAsia flight QZ8501 is Chi-Man Choi, the BBC understands.
It is thought he was with his two-year-old daughter on the plane, which was flying from Indonesia to Singapore with 162 people on board when it went missing in the early hours of Sunday.
The UK Foreign Office earlier confirmed a British national was on the flight and the family had been informed.
"Our thoughts are with the passengers' families," the FCO said.
Foreign Secretary Philip Hammond tweeted: "My thoughts are with the family and friends of all those on board Air Asia flight QZ8501."
A spokesman for the British Embassy in Jakarta said it was working with local authorities to establish further details....
I would find it very believable to realize al Bagdadi has prodded defeated regimes back into valor. After all, it is a global caliphate, isn't it? He is counting on numbers and uprisings through faux democracy movements.
That is my estimate. And only my estimate. It is the 'waiting and planning' which launched the old Ba'athists into a faux caliphate. The people have no idea what a caliphate was. Baghdadi defined it as ethnic cleansing and genocide. He is demented and charismatic. We have a problem.
If this is any kind of regime the chances of finding any passengers alive is very remote. The regimes I am somewhat familiar with won't use interrogation so much as ethnic cleansing. I hope it was the weather and/or the jet. At least there is a chance some may have found there way to shore. Albeit small chance either way.

The only reason anyone has survived as prisoners to al Baghdadi's regime is because they are useful for hostage payments. The West's people were taken as objects of wealth and funding. The reason it took so long to begin to publicly execute them is because once the people of the free world realized what the regime was doing they could no longer accumulate prisoners; people would stop coming as journalists or NGO workers into Syria or otherwise within their control.
The Baghdadi regime are killers. They are not interested in a civilized society. To even entertain that thought is victimization by the hope most of The West carries as their promise by their governments. The regimes use the emotional competency of The West against itself. The West always believes in the potential for good. The regimes have no intention of conducting 'good' in the world.
Would torture ever work on these people? No. One had to understand what decency, civilization, the value of life and goodness is; where it is absent by upbringing it would be like finding a child raised by wolves.
