Default SE Cessna crashses near Hawthorne

Just heard it on local L.A. ABC. 27 year old Pilot (only occupant) hit some high tension power lines, intended to land at Hawthorne. Pilot is in serious but stable condition. Couldn't get an N number from the footage.

Any one know any thing?

Wow that is pretty crazy!!
Another plane crash happened a mile off the coast of Carlsbad sunday morning. It was a cessna 182 took off out of CRQ PALOMAR and flew out for a stright out departure , got up to 9,000 feet and then did a nose dive stright into the ocean.
Total of three pax were on board, 2 were females 1 male. The coast guard found the 2 female bodies but the pilot is still missing. The coast guard found just pieces of the plane apond arrival, but the plane sinked to the bottom of the ocean where its believed to be about 200 feet down!
It will be very hard to retrieve the plane if in fact they do try to get it.
Oh and the conditions were overcast at the airport at that time...so I'm not too sure that would have anything to do with it because normally for the carlsbad area , tops are around 4,000 or less so they should of been on top of the clouds at 9,000. Who knows poor girls!!!

Well, now the Fox 11 replay is saying it was a 50 year old male in a Beechcraft. I only saw on shot and it was from pretty high over head so its real hard to tell what it is. Either way both news casts claim the pilot was in serious, but non-life threatning condition.
