Two Americans were killed when their private jet inexplicably bypassed its Texas destination by hundreds of miles and crashed in the mountains of northeastern Mexico, authorities said. The bodies of the victims, identified as Susan Reynolds, 27, and Larry W. Morris, 39, both of Dallas, were recovered from the crash site about 100 miles northwest of Monterrey. The two took off from Memphis, Tenn., on Friday after filing a flight plan for Addison Airport, in a north Dallas suburb, the Federal Aviation Administration said. But the jet overflew its destination, and there was no response when an F-16 and another plane tried to contact the pilot.
