Disappeared over jungle. Injured pilot and two unhurt passengers rescued 18 April 1976. Some doubt about crash details, as the New York Times reports a twin engine aircraft crash on this date 35 miles east of Montego Bay and both occupants killed. The plot thickens if you add the fatal crash of Aero Commander 580 in St Ann's Bay on the same date.
