"The body of a student pilot who was ejected from a small aircraft above an area east of Chattanooga, Tenn., Friday evening was found on Saturday, authorities said. The man’s body was located after 8 a.m. local time, Bob Gault, a spokesman for the Bradley County Sheriff’s department, told NBC News. The man was flying his Zodiac 601 aircraft along with an instructor when a malfunction caused the plane to nose dive and the canopy flew open, Collegedale Municipal Airport employee Lowell Sterchi told the Chattanooga Times Free Press. He was thrown from the plane since his seatbelt wasn't fastened."
