The sister of Daniele Polito has paid tribute to him for the first time, as she confirmed he is the sixth victim of the Shoreham Airshow disaster.

Mr Polito, 23, was travelling with friend Matt Jones in his silver BMW at the time of the plane crash at 1.20pm last Saturday.

The young father from Worthing has not been heard from since.

Posting on Facebook Daniele's sister, Marina Polito, wrote: "I would just like to say a massive thank you to every one who has supported my family over the last few painful days. 

"I am overwhelmed by the kindness you have all shown. 

"I know many people loved him and will miss him loads, but as long as we keep him in our hearts and memories, he will never really leave us. 

"I miss you loads already little (big) bro! Keep making people smile, love you always xxx"
