New York: Two people have been killed after a single-engine plane crashed in the northern New York City suburb of Westchester County after disappearing from radar.
According to authorities, the small plane took off from John F. Kennedy International Airport at 4:58 pm heading for Cuyahoga Airport in Richmond Heights, Ohio.
Reportedly, the single-engine Beechcraft A36 was about a mile away from Westchester County Airport in White Plains when the pilot reported engine problems, telling the tower he was low on oil pressure.
Shortly afterwards, the tower lost radio contact with the plane.
County officials said the plane was found late Thursday night in trees near a lake close to the airport.
The bodies of the two people—experienced pilots— were recovered as well.
The FAA and the National Transportation Safety Board are to investigate the incident.
Registration records show the aircraft is owned by Daviation Inc. from Willoughby.
