Today in history: July 16.

Today in history: July 1999, June 16, June 1999, it was a foggy, hot and humid July night in Northeast China, and everyone will miss it in the snow in January. It's a good beach weather, but it's not the best condition for flying, especially for a relatively inexperienced pilot. His cousin Rory, the youngest child in Robert Kennedy, is getting married the next day. Caroline's sister followed closely; The couple planned to send her to Martha's Vineyard. John, a lovely little boy, saluted his dead father's coffin and grew up to be "the sexiest man". He and his two passengers took off from Essex Airport in his Piper Saratoga single-engine plane. Kennedy usually doesn't take risks like many of his cousins. Although the experienced pilot wouldn't let him do it, he decided to take part in the flight. As there are no road signs or coastal lights, pilots will have to rely on their instruments. John F. Kennedy has only accumulated 300 hours in the air, and he is not qualified to operate the plane only through instruments. One of his flight instructors was very worried that he offered to travel with them, but Kennedy turned him down, saying that he "wanted to go alone."

1At about 9: 30 pm on July 6, 999, John F. Kennedy's bagpiper Saratoga began to descend 30 miles west of Martha's Vineyard. The Kennedy is seven miles from land, so it may get lost, turn right off the coast and climb hundreds of feet. According to the information released by national transportation safety board, Kennedy's plane flew from 2,200 feet to 1 100 feet in 14 seconds, and then disappeared from the radar screen.

Intensive rescue operations were carried out for three people, but with the passage of time, the purpose of this mission changed from rescue to recovery. On July 2 1, the bodies of three victims were found at sea 8 miles from Martha's Vineyard. On July 22nd, USS Brisco held a memorial service for John F. Kennedy, Caroline Baissette Kennedy and Lauren Baissette, and their ashes were scattered into the sea.

When national transportation safety board released the investigation report, he came to the conclusion that the most likely cause of the tragedy was that "the plane failed to control when it landed on the water at night, because the space was disoriented. The cause of the accident was smog and night.
