N2741J
CESSNA 150
THE AIRCRAFT WAS REPORTED TO HAVE DEPARTED AT OR NEAR SUNSET ON A 30 MINUTE AEROBATIC FLIGHT AND DID NOT RETURN. DURING THAT PERIOD, AN AIRCRAFT MATCHING ITS DESCRIPTION WAS OBSERVED TO CRASH NEAR BY IN THE OCEAN WHILE THE PILOT WAS PERFORMING AEROBATICS. A WITNESS OBSERVED THAT TWO OBJECTS CAME FROM THE AIRCRAFT JUST PRIOR TO THE CRASH. HE THOUGHT THE OBJECTS MAY HAVE BEEN A DOOR AND THE PILOT, BUT HE WAS NOT SURE. TWO DAYS LATER, PARTS OF AN AIRCRAFT THAT MATCHED THE MISSING PLANE, WASHED ASHORE.
