Jetliner crash search continues as bodies found near Marina del Rey
A Bay Watch III lifeguard boat recovered a male corpse from a jet fuel slick off Marina del Rey near the airport runway. The NTSB sent a 12 man team led by Thomas R. Sanders to Los Angeles to determine the crash cause, which may take six to eight months. A weather hampered search prompts the Deep Quest submarine to suspend work on the DC 8 tail section until conditions improve.
