GA plane crash in my area - timtomairways - 24-04-2009 http://flightaware.com/live/flight/N2938R thats a link to flight info N2938R, a piper Cheroke lost its engine over my home town, and glided into a back yard in hilliard just south of my town. i think he was trying to make the runway at hilliard airpark (01J) but ended up in a clearing about 1mile from the Airport. this happened hours ago, i was at work. the airplane split inhalf just behind the passenger cabin. thats what the local news said the plane is almost intact, 1 wing is in a tree somewhere, but the passenger cabin looks normal. the pilot really did a good job. everyone has escaped with minor injurys, apperently there where 4 souls onboard there is an airport in my home town. not shure why he did not go there. maby altitude or position. Re: GA plane crash in my area - 969SQN - 26-04-2009 Wow that must of been a surprize Is the aircraft still there? Didn't relise you could track the aircraft on flightaware, very interesting. Re: GA plane crash in my area - timtomairways - 26-04-2009 i think so, not shure if they moved it. actualy t turns out i know the pearson that lives across from the crash site
