Pilot survives 56 hours adrift after plane crash
Navy Lt Cmdr Allen Spicer, 36, stayed afloat for 56 hours in the Atlantic without a life jacket after bailing from a rented Piper Arrow during a night test flight. He used drown-proofing to breathe and credited thoughts of family for endurance as the plane was found offshore and he was spotted crawling on Ponte Vedra Beach days later.
