apparently had been preparing
for the last minute of landing
and all, according to a preliminary
examination by the coroner, had
died as result of drowning.
The top of the plane had been
ripped off, apparently as a result
of its terrific impact with the
water, and it was believed that
the eight passengers were hurled
from their seats and into the bay.
Safety belts were found either in
tact or broken, indicating the pas
sengers had followed instructions
to "fasten them in preparation
for landing.
Hours after the plane was rails

ton, searchers found the body of
a passenger identified as that of
Mark Fontana, San Francisco food
broker and capitalist, who appar-
enty was alive after the crash but
