Australian Small Plane Crash

Police have found just a few pieces of a plane that crashed off a Gold Coast beach, but heavy seas and strong winds continue to disrupt the search for the aircraft's two occupants.
Gold Coast pilot Garry Sweetnam, 49, and passenger Andrew Mitchell, 33, of Murwillumbah in northern NSW, were on board when their twin-seater plane plunged into the ocean 500 metres off Narrowneck beach on Friday. About 20 people saw the plane spiral out of control and nosedive into the water.
