THESE are the heartbreaking final pictures of the family boarding the doomed New York chopper that plunged into the Hudson River, killing everyone on board.

Agustin Escobar, his wife Merce Camprubi Montal, and their three children were identified as the victims of the horror crash on Thursday afternoon.

The pilot, who still remains unidentified, also died in the tragedy, law enforcement sources confirmed.

The gut-wrenching photos, published on the New York Helicopter Tours website, show the bundled-up family grinning as they posed beside the doomed Bell 206L-4 LongRanger IV.

They were later seen strapped inside the aircraft for what was meant to be a dream tour over Manhattan.

But tragedy struck around 3.15 pm, when the helicopter reportedly broke apart midair and dropped like a stone into the Hudson, killing four people on impact.

Two others were later pronounced dead at the hospital.

Terrifying videos show the chopper completely upside down and bubbling underneath the 50-degree water’s surface after the wreck.

The cause of the wreck hasn’t been confirmed, but eyewitness video showed the chopper shatter into pieces mid-air before it fell into the waters near the Holland Tunnel in New Jersey.

Footage taken from the shore showed the bottom of the helicopter partially sticking out of the water as New York Police Department boats cruised to the wreck.

The family had landed in New York just hours earlier, having flown in from Barcelona to kick off their vacation.

Escobar, a 25-year veteran of the international tech and mobility scene, had held top positions across the globe — including Spain, South America, and the U.S.

Most recently, he was appointed Global CEO of Rail Infrastructure at Siemens Mobility in October.

His wife, Merce Camprubi Montal, also had an impressive career.

She worked as a global commercialization manager at Siemens Energy in Barcelona for seven years, according to her LinkedIn profile.

The couple’s three children, all believed to be in middle school or younger, were also killed in the crash.

“He was such a great person — kind, steady, and always there when you needed him,” said Juan Ignacio Diaz, who used to work with Escobar.

“He was a loyal friend, someone you could really count on.”

“No matter how hard things got, he always stayed calm and kept it together. He had this way of making things feel OK, even when they weren’t,” Diaz added.

“And he never forgot what mattered most — his family.”

“He was a loving, fun, and just really cool dad,” he said.

“I’m going to miss him and his family. I love you my friend.”
