From Orlando, FL. Orlando Sentinel :
SANDY CREEK -- The bodies of two men were discovered in the wreckage of an ultralight aircraft Wednesday, a day after the plane was reported missing, authorities said.
A fellow pilot spotted the wreckage of the Kolb Mark III ultralight shortly before 8 a.m. and alerted authorities, according to the Bay County Sheriff's Office.
The Bay County Sheriff's Office Search and Rescue Unit located the bodies soon after the pilot's report, authorities said.
The bodies of the pilot, Joseph Peter Lagerloef, 69, of Panama City, and his passenger, Claude Frank Phillips, 63, of Lynn Haven, were recovered, reports said.
The men took off from Sandy Creek Airstrip about 10 a.m. Tuesday and were reported missing that evening, sheriff's officials said.
A flight plan had not been filed.
It was not clear where the men intended to fly.
The Federal Aviation Administration was investigating the crash.
