911 Calls Released as Crews Lift Wreckage From Coral Springs Lake Crash

NTSB investigators have begun a months-long probe centered on debris recovered from the Windsor Bay lake.

Overview

  • Authorities identified Alexander Wurm, 53, and his daughter Serena, 22, who were headed to Jamaica to deliver Hurricane Melissa relief supplies.
  • Recordings describe homes shaking, a strong fuel odor, debris flung into streets, and neighbors searching the water for survivors.
  • Investigators used a crane and sonar to pull mangled sections from the lake and continued collecting scattered pieces and soil samples.
  • The aircraft was a 1976 Beech B100 twin‑engine King Air, which disappeared into the water minutes after departing Fort Lauderdale Executive Airport.
  • Flight-tracking and social media show recent relief trips to Montego Bay and George Town, and the cause remains undetermined with findings expected to take months.
