A flight instructor and her student, a U.S. Navy officer<\/a> who was also a father-to-be, are presumed dead after their small plane plunged into a New Orleans lake, according to authorities and local reports.<\/p>\n

Instructor\u00a0Taylor Dickey and her student,\u00a0Navy Lt. David Michael Jahn, took off in a Cessna 172 Skyhawk last Monday, but the aircraft disappeared from flight radar over Lake Pontchartrain, about four miles north of New Orleans Lakefront Airport, according to the United Cajun Navy. Local media WWLTV<\/a> reported that the 30-year-olds departed from Gulfport\u2013Biloxi International Airport, about 70 miles northeast of where they went missing.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Jahn, a Civil Engineer Corps officer with the Navy Seabees based in Gulfport, Mississippi, was married to his wife, Taylor, who is five months pregnant, the United Cajun Navy told Fox News Digital on Sunday. He was nearing his commercial pilot\u2019s license with just under 250 flight hours, according to the flight school.<\/p>\n

The United Cajun Navy added that the pilot instructor “was known for her strong faith, her love of flying, and her commitment to mentoring other women in aviation.”<\/p>\n

While the United Cajun Navy is still continuing its search effort, arguing that “families deserve closure,” the Coast Guard<\/a> said its agency suspended operations Wednesday afternoon after crews searched by air and water for roughly 45 hours, covering more than 770 square miles.<\/p>\n

“Our hearts go out to the families and loved ones impacted by this tragic situation,” Cmdr. Michael Wurster, the Coast Guard Sector New Orleans search and rescue mission coordinator, said in a statement. “Suspending a search is one of the most difficult decisions we make, and it is done only after every effort has been made to locate those involved.”<\/p>\n

Michael Carastro, the owner of flight school Apollo Aviation<\/a> that owned the plane, said during a press conference on Tuesday that no distress call was made, but the plane likely disintegrated on impact in a “very, very violent” manner.<\/p>\n

He described the challenges of flying over water at night, especially in “marginal” weather, present a lot of challenges to the pilot.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The United Cajun Navy said Saturday that wreckage from the missing aircraft<\/a> \u2014 including a seat cushion and headrest from a small plane \u2014 was eventually found. The group said it utilized boats, sonar teams, air support and K9 units amid harsh weather.<\/p>\n

He expressed profound grief and noted that this was the first serious incident Apollo Aviation had experienced in its decades of operation.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
