A four-seater Piper aircraft crashed unnoticed this week between two launch pads at Cape Canaveral, the US Air Force said on Saturday.
Wreckage and the body of the pilot were found in a wooded area Friday afternoon, nearly two days after the aircraft disappeared from radar screens, a USAF spokesman said.
A USAF helicopter crew spotted the Piper's tail close to a launch pad used for small rockets on short, high-altitude flights.
