THE AIRCRAFT MADE A SHARP RIGHT TURN, DESCRIBEDAS THE WINGS BEING 90 DEGREES TO THE HORIZON. THE AIRCRAFT IMPACTED THE WATER IN A RIGHT WING LOW ATTITUDE. THE PILOT'S LOGBOOK REVEALED THAT HIS LAST FLIGHT PRIOR TO THIS FLIGHT WAS SIX MONTHS AGO. Source: NTSB Aviation Accident Database (Pre-2008 Archive) Retrieved: 2026-02-12
