A Note to Our Readers

Dear Readers,
We make a special effort here to record the facts as we receive them. At times, there may be error but we do try to use our best judgement at the time of posting, and will be glad to amend any details which are proved incorrect. Furthermore, even though we do not here discuss the human cost, we realize that losing anyone in an air accident is insurmountable tragedy to individuals, families and communities. We do extend our heartfelt sympathy to those whose loss we record here. "...any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind, and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls, it tolls for..." us all.

Emergency Update: Plane for Sale



What: Challenger II Special (described as a step up from ultralight aircraft)
Where: south of the County Airport in a field at 695 Township Road 1275.
When: 12:40 p.m
Who: Pilot and plane owner Jeffrey K. Edmondson with 29 years of flying experience.
Why: When Edmondson's new plane's engine decided to quit when he cut the throttle, Edmonson decided to quit the plane. (Since he did make a safe landing.) The plane has sensitive rudder controls which require a lot of practice, which hopefully the buyer will be able to get. Although Edmondson was in the process of registering the plane, it is now for sale.
