Airplane Crash on the highway
on sunday, a plane crached after take off from Schamburg airport. the plane was a trainer and a teacher and student were aboard. when they got up in the air, they had engine problems and tried to make an emergency landing. they could not get turned around fast and high enuff. they attempted to land on the highway (next to the airport) and the plane hit 2 light poles, ripped of a wing and flipped onto its roof. it happened around 12:20pm, the road was opened and cleared by 3:45. i am surprised they did not call and wait for the NTSB and the FAA. State PD called Redmonds towing for the recovery. they did not even keep the media back. they (we) walked around debries on the road.
Redmonds lifted the wreckage and set it on a lowboy. they did the upright at the airport
when they got to the airport, they went out of site to do the recovery. i had to drive 2 miles around the airport to a clearing/office complex. these pictures turned out good considering i was almost 2 1/2 football feilds away.
