No survivors in plane crash involving area family


Updated: 08.20.08
The wreckage of a  small plane carrying  a Southampton family that had been missing since Friday evening was found by a hiker today  near where it lost contact with air traffic controllers, authorities said. Reports from the site east of Breckenridge, Colo. were that there were no survivors.

According to Colorado authorities, the missing family members are Tommy Jacomini Jr.,  wife Susie and two elementary school-age children.

Rescue teams were sent to the area Sunday after it was determined a search that began Saturday had to be called off due to hazardous weather conditions. The family had failed to arrive on schedule in Brenham after departing Steamboat Springs, Colo.

Tommy Jacomini, an experienced flier who was piloting the 2005 single-engine Cessna 182, had not file a flight plane at the time air traffic officials lost track of them, officials said.
