The long-running network television news magazine 'Dateline NBC' is scheduled to air "Flying High in Cocktail Cove" during its 9 p.m. broadcast tonight. Local residents can watch the program on MediaCom Channel 11, WPMI-TV, Mobile, Ala.

The report will review the story of Indianapolis financier Marcus Schrenker's attempt in January to fake his own death to escape mounting personal and legal problems. Schrenker, a pilot, bailed out of his plane after reporting engine problems. The plane crashed in Santa Rosa County.

"During this time of economic crisis, we've heard numerous stories of business moguls like Bernie Madoff, accused of defrauding investors of billions of dollars. But for sheer drama, no case is more eyebrow-raising than that of Marcus Shrenker. He and his beautiful wife seemed to have it all, living in a mansion in the ritzy neighborhood called Cocktail Cove, until back in January, when Shrenker, a pilot, radioed air traffic controllers that his small plane was going down. At that moment, investigators say, he strapped on a parachute and put in motion a daring plan to fake his own death, and hide his double-life.
