ROCHESTER, N.Y. (AP) — The family of a Rochester couple whose private plane crashed near Jamaica in September says the plane's wreckage has been recovered from the ocean depths.
Larry and Jane Glazer, both 68-year-old experienced pilots, were flying from Rochester to Naples, Florida, on Sept. 5 when air traffic controllers lost contact with their single-engine turboprop. The plane flew on its own for 1,700 miles before running out of fuel and slamming into the sea.
In a statement released Wednesday, the Glazer family said they hired the Eclipse Group of Maryland to search for the plane and their parents' remains. They say the search was successful and the remains will be brought home.
Larry Glazer was a prominent businessman who redeveloped downtown Rochester properties. Jane Glazer founded a household-products catalog company.
