Richard Madeley criticized for his "insensitive" interview with the missing pilot's family

Richard Madeley and Kate Garraway exasperated viewers for an interview with the family of missing pilot David Ibbotson in Good Morning Britain.

Ibbotson has not yet been found after the crash last month that cost the life of footballer Emiliano Sala, whose body was found found in the wreckage.

The plane was driving Sala de Nantes to Cardiff and the rest of the plane was found by a private research team at the bottom of the English Channel on 4 February.

Ibbotson's family appeared on GMB to discuss his fundraising efforts, but the interview left some viewers in shock.

Many have called the Garraway and Madeley issues "insensitive," the Liverpool Echo reports.

In one case, Madeley said, "Let's be clear, you do not ask that the wreckage of the aircraft be mentioned, because experts say it's almost impossible."

He continued: "But the same body has been brought to the surface and there will be a clear burial.Do you want the same privilege if it is possible? And tell us why it is so important to find the person lost?

"Why is it so important for you to have it?"

One user said: "What a terrible, insubstantial introductory question from Richard Madeley! Come back @ susannareid100 and @piersmorgan."

Another wrote, "Why is it so important to get it back? What a question to ask Richard … so that they can send him a message that he deserves."

A third accepted, saying, "What silly question to ask a bereaved family."

And a spectator said, "I can not believe my ears, they were both ashamed with their questions!"

Speaking during the series, Nora and Danielle both said that they did not want to give up her research.

On creating a fundraising page for further research, Nora said, "We obviously know he's gone, but we want to get it back, until we know we do not can not recover it, it will probably be able to say that he is gone.

"The minute we know he's dead, we know it, but we just want him to be at home."

Danielle added, "We do not want to give up."

Nora said: "We are a very close family, I am very privileged to keep my children at home and support me, we were a good unit together.

"That's another reason we're doing it – because of David, he's a brilliant husband, he's supported us all, he was our supporter, he was our rock.

"We just want to know … we can not leave him alone, we feel like he's just alone at the moment, so we called for help."

Danielle said she had received the news of the accident: "The police let us know, so we all had to go home and be told … we never want to …

"I was sitting there and I was calling my dad, you know? As if:" This is not my dad ", you know?"

Nora said he wants the research to continue:[We want someone to] go down and take a last look. A look at the eye. I know that the conditions are not brilliant, I know that the sea is so dangerous, but for us to know ourselves, we had one last [look]… "

The fundraising page has reached £ 140,000 on its £ 300,000 goal.

Nora said she wants to recover her body: "[it’s] so that our family unit is back. We can go visit him. And just to know he's here. "

Danielle said about the type of dad that he was: "Amazing, so lucky to have him as dad … It was the kind of dad he would not kiss, he was would lift you, he loved us so much.

"He would not be [give up on us]. It can take a long time, I just do not want it to be right. I'm not sure we can search the coastal areas, they said it could go up … ".
