www.deseretnews.com/article/865556514/Four-people-killed-in-plane-crash-near-St-George-airport.htmlFour people were killed Saturday when a single-engine Cessna mysteriously crashed about 300 feet from the runway at the airport in St George, Utah. The cause of the crash is undetermined and there were no witnesses. It is estimated that the crash occurred at about 1:30 am but the plane was not discovered until five hours later during a routine security check. The small airport is not staffed late at night and relies on automation to coordinate inbound and outbound flights. There have never been any other crashes or incidents at the two year old airport. The National Weather Service has reported that conditions were calm at the time of the crash. No distress calls were heard and other air traffic in and out of the airport was not disrupted. The FAA and National Transportation Safety Board both plan to investigate the crash. The reason I am posting this is not because it has anything to do with UFOs, aliens or government conspiracies but because the people on board the plane were family friends of one of our members here. Our prayers go out to them. You never know when or where a tragedy like this will strike. While everybody is out traveling and enjoying the holiday weekend take care and try to be safe, and remember those who have lost their lives, whether as soldiers serving in the military or as civilians trying to enjoy the freedom that we have in this country. That's what Memorial Day is all about.

Sky, Louise called me long distance this morning. Those guys were all friends of her Granddaughter and she had talk to all of them just before midnight. She said they mention nothing about getting on a plane. No one runs that runway at night. The airport is closed. So they just went in there and took a plane of theirs and flew it out on their own. I guess T... is very upset. I sure hope they find out what happen, if I hear anything from T... through Louise I will post it.

I read today that a security camera recorded the plane trying to take off. It was very low going all the way down the runway then it suddenly went up and the camera lost sight of it. It crashed shortly after that. There is still no telling what caused it.

~hugz Lois~ My best wishes and condolences to your family Lois... Thank you lorelie. It was not my family but my lifetime friend. Louise never come here but she is a member. Once in a while when I tell her go look at what so and so posted. She says it is so confusing trying to understand the forum. I have showed her a few things. She does look at the last 50 post. She always forgets how to click on link to post. She has made comments but I was on the phone with her at the time. She did not know these four guys. They were friends of her granddaughters. who lives in Utah .. Louise lives in Vegas. or rather Henderson a suburb like. Don't know much about them except one guy came back and put his phone number in her cell phone before he left. She had broken up with her boyfriend and this guy was trying to make her feel better. What a shame.
