From the wreckage pics found on Twitter: last digit of bu.no is a 3, digit before that looks like a '0' so 166503 is the one that crashed?

If you refer to the twitter pics on aviationsafetynet, I doubt if that's the BuNo you see there. Might also be the code, for instance the one found on the flaps, and the first digit might possibly also be a 1 or a 7 instead of a 0. Time will tell, most important is that the crew made it out safely.
