Analysis

The pilot apparently failed to properly recover from a bounced landing and broke a landing gear wheel. The aircraft hit and fatally injured a person on the ground. Local authorities believe the persons body was then transported about four miles and thrown into the river and the aircraft deliberately burned. The aircraft was reported by its owner as having been stolen on 1/29/86.
