The Lt. in command of the training flight became confused, while over the Bahamas he kept thinking he was over the Florida Keyes. Everyone kept telling him to fly west, and that the compasses were fine. But he had it in his head that they were over the Keyes, so instead of flying west he had his small group fly North and East into the Atlantic. They ran out of gas and had to ditch into the ocean, with no one able to find them, they died.
Yes! Flight l9 was a formation of several USN Avenger Torpedo bombers, the Traiing squadron, for some odd reason called a flight (In the ground army a group of say, Trucks operating in formation is called a convoy) went missing simultaneously there were odd comments from the Squadron Leader, a Lieutenant Taylor-(Something strange down there) That an entire formation of eight planes could just vanish in plain sight is more than a little disturbing, all could not have made the same (Pilkot error) or misread instruments. They were spread out so no collission or aerial (Chain reaction crash) is possible. Weather may have been a factor but a whole squadron gfoing missing at once, it is the first and one of the most important of the Bermuda Triangle losses and the first major aircraft one. Ship losses date to the nineteenth century in thoise waters.
No more than the number of planes that have disappeared over a very large area anywhere else on the planet. The Bermuda Triangle is a load of garbage. The PBS science show; NOVA and a Discovery channel program hosted by Dr. Arthur C. Clarke both looked into the Bermuda Triangle and found it to be a hoax. The main reason people talk about the Bermuda Triangle is so that con artists can make money off of gullible people who are easily fooled.
Technically, there's no proof that Flight 19 actually crashed within the Triangle itself. Some theories (pretty good ones) posit that they actually went down in as many places as the Keys, Gulf of Mexico or in the Florida swamps.
As far as the many theories as to what caused the crash, the simplest is that the Flight leader, Lt. Charles Taylor, misled his trainees and got lost, until the point where they ran out of fuel and crashed.
The Triangle is known for rapid weather changes and magnetic anomalies that can interfere with both magnetic and electronic navigation devices. What is not generally known (because it's not good for selling the story) is that Lt. Taylor wasn't that great a pilot; he had gotten lost more than once on other flights. The flight plan for the training mission wasn't that complex, and it's pretty hard to miss the East Coast of Florida, unless you screw up and are heading further out into the Atlantic.
It happened December 5, 1945. The flight was lead by Lt. Charles Taylor who was in command of 13 students.

How many planes have flown over the Bermuda triangle and survived?
Almost all of them. The "Star Tiger" disappeared on a flight to Bermuda in January, 1948, and a Douglas DC-3 disappeared in December that same year. A training flight of bombers went missing in 1945, possibly in the area of the triangle. There are dozens of flights over the "Bermuda Triangle" every day, and in the past 80 years these are about the only unexplained disappearances--all of which occurred more than 60 years ago. Oh, a Cessna disappeared in 1969. Statistical analysis has shown that any equally heavily traveled area of ocean has about the same (or more) "unexplained" disappearances as the Bermuda Triangle. Disappearances there are not statistically significant.

How did the Bermuda triangle get its place?
Tectonic drift -- Actually, that's moving it. The Bermuda Triangle reaches from Bermuda (a tiny island) to Puerto Rico (a tiny island) to the city of Miami (not so tiny.) The concept of the Bermuda triangle was created in 1950 with an article by Associated Press reporter Edward Van Winkle Jones. He had a map showing an airplane flying from Bermuda toward Puerto Rico, another plane flying from Puerto Rico to Miami, and finally, Flight 19 flying from Fort Lauderdale out in the direction of Bermuda. It looks a triangle drawn over the Atlantic Ocean. Each year, ships and planes go missing off the eastern coastline of the United States, as planes have for a century, and ships literally for hundreds of years. Yet both the US Coast Guard and Lloyds of London state that no more ships or planes go missing here than off the Pacific coastline. Much of the story however, begins with Flight 19, aka the Lost Patrol when supposedly they disappeared suddenly into the infamous Bermuda Triangle. Flight 19 disappeared in December of 1945 but it wasn't into the Bermuda triangle and it wasn't sudden - it took five hours for each of the TMB avengers to drop out of the sky. The irony of Flight 19 is that none of the men died within the infamous Bermuda triangle. Three crash sites have been located and one aircraft has been raised from the sea.
