Five U.S. Navy Avenger bombers lost communication during a training mission at the Fort Lauderdale Naval Air Force Station and were never heard from again. They were presumed lost at sea.

He wrote in his journal that the aircraft were years ahead of anything that was available at that time. No bodies of the pilots or crew were ever located.
