Still early days, this report mentions a London departure whereas FR24 shows Oslo

The aircraft was flying from Oslo to Tromsų, doing a mail run for the Norwegian Postal Service.
Wreckage identified just east of the Swedish border, Northeast of Bodų, and today's news say that one of the flight recorders has been found intact.

Radar returns also indicate a very rapid descent, 21,000 feet in 60 seconds.

Glad to hear one of the FDRs has been recovered, the impact zone is very small indicating a high velocity crash not surprisingly.
