ST. JOHN'S, N.L. - The Transportation Safety Board says it believes there are 10 to 13 bodies in the wreckage of a downed helicopter off the coast of Newfoundland, but it adds there could be more.
Lead investigator Mike Cunningham says one more body has been recovered from the wreckage.
The TSB used a remote controlled camera to search the wreckage to determine if any bodies were inside the helicopter's fuselage.
One person was rescued from the flight, which was carrying 18 passengers and crew to offshore oil rigs when it crashed on Thursday.
The body of 26-year-old Allison Maher of Newfoundland was recovered after the crash on Thursday.
The TSB found the helicopter using the remote controlled camera on the bottom of the ocean floor, between 120 and 150 metres from the surface.
The TSB says it will try to raise the helicopter, possibly as early as Monday.
Police have now identified 13 people who are believed to have died in the crash.
The one survivor, Robert Decker, remained in a St. John's hospital Saturday in stable but critical condition.
Here is a partial list of names of the 17 people who are presumed dead in Thursday's helicopter crash off Newfoundland and Labrador as released by the RCMP. Only one person has been confirmed dead by the RCMP:
Corey Eddy, 32, Paradise, originally from Sibley's Cove, N.L.
Peter Breen, 55, St. John's, N.L.
Gary Corbett, 46, Conception Bay South, N.L.
