4 bodies pulled from wreckage of US plane Four bodies have been recovered from the site of a plane crash in Connecticut. FOUR bodies have been recovered from the site of a plane crash in a residential Connecticut neighbourhood, US officials say. Those presumed dead are the former Microsoft executive pilot, his teenage son and two children in a home struck by the aircraft. The bodies - two from the plane and two from one of the two houses struck - were pulled from the site on Friday shortly before midnight, says Anthony Moscato, deputy chief of the East Haven Fire Department. They are believed to be the only victims. The multi-engine, propeller-driven plane was coming in for a landing at Tweed New Haven Airport in rainy weather just before noon on Friday when it struck two small homes, engulfing them in flames. On Saturday, crews removed charred sections of the plane as National Transportation Safety Board investigators worked to determine the cause of the crash. NTSB investigator Patrick Murray said the plane was upside down upon impact at about a 60 degree angle. He said the pilot was making his first approach to the airport and did not declare an emergency before the crash. Before analysing any data, Murray said at a news conference in New Haven: "We don't have any indication there was anything wrong with the plane." A preliminary NTSB report on the crash is expected within 10 business days. A more in-depth report could take up to nine months. Authorities previously said as many as six people could have been killed. Two children, ages 1 and 13, have been missing since the plane crashed into their home. The family learned it was his plane through the tail number, said his brother, Blair, the city attorney in Astoria, Oregon. In April 2009, Henningsgaard crash-landed his small plane on Washington state's Columbia River when the engine quit as he was flying from Astoria to Seattle. He and his 84-year-old mother climbed out on a wing and were rescued by a passing boat as the plane began to sink. Tweed's airport manager, Lori Hoffman-Soares, said Henningsgaard had been in communication with air traffic control and hadn't issued any distress calls.
