Howard Hughes died en route after stroke on Houston flight
Two pilots recall Hughes emaciated and pale as he was loaded onto a Graf Jet air-ambulance from Acapulco to Houston. They believed the passenger was Hughes, who died aboard the Lear jet before reaching Houston. Authorities cite Summa Corp. as his holding group and note his fortune, once near 2 billion, stemmed from Toolco and later aviation and real estate interests.
