BOYNTON BEACH - Two people were killed in a single-engine plane crash in a gated community, authorities said Sunday. Flight instructor Anders Selberg, 46, of Port St. Lucie and pilot trainee Arjun Chhikara, 18, were killed, the Palm Beach Sheriff's Office said. Another man, 38-year-old trainee Chandrashekhar Godghate, was injured and hospitalized. Authorities said Chhikara and Godghate are from India, but their hometowns were not known. The Piper PA-28-181 is registered to Day Trippin Airlines out of Olathe, Kan. It took off from the Lantana airport, flew to Opa-locka and was returning to Lantana when the Palm Beach International Airport heard its distress call at about 8:15 p.m. Saturday. The pilot reported engine failure before crashing into a golf course. No one on land was reported injured.
