LOS ANGELES – A historian's reported discovery of the wreckage of an Air Force jet lost at sea 54 years ago off the Southern California coast brought an unexpected surge of emotions for the pilot's brother, who found himself grieving all over again.
Aviation archaeologist G. Pat Macha said Tuesday that he and a group of volunteers found Richard Martin Theiler's plane underneath 100 feet of water earlier this month. Theiler was in the front seat of the Lockheed-Martin T-33A that went missing just after takeoff from the Los Angeles International Airport on Oct. 15, 1955.
