So much for the "Big Sky Theory" I guess. Another sad event. My prayers go to the families of the victims.

Investigators Monday will resume their search for the bodies of four people who died when two flight-school planes collided over the Everglades in West Broward, raining debris on a stretch of marshland reachable only by airboats and swamp buggies.

The planes -- a single-engine Cessna and a twin-engine Piper -- slammed into each other on a clear Saturday afternoon in airspace where South Florida flight instructors routinely take students to practice.

From what I read,
Both had student pilots on board :frown:

Yes they did. On the local evening news they said that all four bodies were recovered.
