Louisville pilot found dead in Bahamas following multi-day search
A Louisville man who went missing in the Bahamas while flying a private airplane has been found dead, according to a report from WHAS-TV.
The pilot, 59-year-old Chris Moore, was found inside his airplane Thursday, four days after he took off from a Florida airport.
The U.S. Coast Guard and the Royal Bahamas Defense Force had been looking for Moore after he was reported missing on Sunday, but both authorities had suspended their searches by Monday.
Moore’s wife, Stayce Love, reportedly told WHAS-TV that Moore died on impact in a marsh less than three miles away from an airport runway and was found by private searchers.
