Missing items after the plane crash

[Vision]

Will loaded the plane with Astrid's bags but kept the medical equipment, the distress pistol etc on his person. Upon crashing he didn't have them in inventory. Did I just miss them at the crash site or is this an issue?

I watched someone's [recorded] live stream and he loaded Astrid's backpack and case into the cargo area, and (as it happened) the distress pistol case, but then took the distress pistol case out and kept it on his person (including the first aid kit and extra food box). After the crash he had none of those items.

Someone in the comments wrote that they put the distress pistol case into the cargo area (can only put one additional item other than Astrid's) and he had the distress pistol after the crash.

So it was not obviously stated, but apparently you would only keep one of the three items or none at all if you didn't put one into the cargo compartment.

Hmm. Ok. That would be worth a try next time.

About those items:
I believe it works this way - you need to choose one of 3 items which you can put into cargo compartment (even Will comments only one thing will fit). After the crash you'll find item(s) of your choosing on the ground when you climb up to the crashed plane. They should be lying just under the plane. I chose flare gun and I've picked it up from where I've described along with 4 or 5 shells.

The boxes of stuff you pick asides from astrids stuff are uptop where the crashed plane are.

Just what @EN16M471C said - it only matters what you loaded onto a plane
