Indian River County, FL — A student pilot and her brother were found dead Thursday night, June 9, 2011, after their plane crashed in a wooded area in Indian River County. The plane accident was reported around 8 p.m., after it was overdue to arrive at Space Coast Aviation, reported ClickOrlando.com.
According to reports, the 21-year-old student pilot, Carly Beattie and her brother, 24-year-old Daniel Beattie were visiting Central Florida from Scotland and staying with their parents on Merritt Island.
The duo took off in a Cessna 152 airplane from Space Coast Aviation around 10 a.m., and failed to return on schedule after a three-hour flight.

Rescue teams were dispatched from Osceola County Sheriff’s Office and Indian River County Sheriff’s Office, who located the wreckage in a wooded area about two miles from the cell phone tower.
Carly and Daniel did not survive the plane crash.
