The grieving family of an American tourist killed in a Queenstown skydiving accident have accused the aviation watchdog of inaction following the country's latest parachuting death. Though boaties eventually pulled the instructor from the water alive, Nii submerged and his body was never recovered. The Nii family are considering sending a dive team with a high-tech underwater drone to New Zealand to search for Tyler's body after police recently released GPS co-ordinates to the family about his last known location.
