Airplane Feared Down Near Xenia Ohio
A pilot near Xenia, about 12 miles northeast of the city, radioed that his plane would go down after running out of gas. Civil Air Patrol planes, an Ohio High Patrol helicopter, and ground crews searched the hilly, wooded area northeast of Xenia. An Air Force helicopter and police cars also scouted the scene but found no trace. Sheriff Bradley noted it would be unlikely the crash occurred without someone hearing or seeing it, though ham radio operators reported hearing the pilot's pleas for help.
