Experimental plane crashes off Northern California coast

Submitted
 
An experimental plane crashed into the Pacific Ocean 460 miles off Point Reyes Thursday night, the U.S. Coast Guard said. There was one person aboard the civilian experimental-type Lancair plane that departed Palmdale, and the pilot was not responding to communications as the aircraft headed out to sea.

The news reports are incorrect - he was flying from Phoenix to Hesperia and overflew his destination. He did not depart from Palmdale. Very sad.

Ryan thank you for sharing the tracking of this aircaft which turned out to be very disconcerting since it shows it as if she went way west and north from the intended destination and headed towards the general direction of the Kamtchaka Peninsula or wherever. Another case of hipoxia induced comma maybe?
