Amazon 7 #1 October 8, 2007 I am really hoping this is not one of ours from Kapowsin. What was happening in Boise this weekend??? http://710kiro.com/Article.asp?id=168764&spid=7564 Missing Plane Believed To Have Crashed Near Rimrock Lake Authorities are searching for a missing plane with eight to ten people on board that's believed to have crashed near Rimrock Lake in the central Washington Cascades. The Yakima County sheriff's office says the Cessna 208 Caravan left Boise around 7 p.m. Sunday and was headed toward Shelton, Wash., but did not arrive as scheduled. Officials say a hunter in the White Pass area told police he saw a plane flying low and heard a crash around 8 p.m. Officials say the plane's emergency locator was not activated. That is some rough country up there... everyone cross your fingers. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stratostar 5 #17 October 8, 2007 Jet-A will not explode unless it is in a fine mist form, so leaking Jet-A will not blow up, with a spark or hot item (it will burn as you know though) . Could be used to start fire and keep warm as well as signal for help.

Thanatos340 1 #25 October 8, 2007 QuoteBy KATU Web Staff WHITE PASS, Wash. -- Search and rescue crews are looking for a small plane that is believed to have crashed Sunday night in the central Washington Cascades while carrying a group of skydivers. Yakima County sheriff officials say the Cessna 208 Caravan left Star, Idaho, near Boise, at about 7 p.m. Sunday and went off radar near Clear Lake in the White Pass area between Yakima and Mount Rainier National Park. A hunter who saw the plane flying low said he heard the crash about 8 p.m. Earlier reports from search officials that the wreckage had been located were erroneous. The search was concentrated Monday in a very rugged area southwest of Rimrock Lake, near the western edge of Yakima County, authorities said. The plane's co-owner called officials early Monday morning to report the aircraft missing, and search coordinators said the plane's emergency beacon did not activate. Elaine Harvey, owner of Skydive Snohomish, said the pilot and most of the passengers on board were all members of Skydive Snohomish and had gone to Boise for a skydiving meet. They were flying back to Shelton, Wash. The plane was owned by Skydive Kapowsin, based in Shelton. Searchers are using the hunter's report and radar information from the FAA to try to find the missing aircraft. Volunteer pilots and the King County Sheriff's Office Guardian One helicopter are also looking helping with the search. Officials said 8 to 10 people were believed to be on board. Updates to follow Do you know something more Amazon? Has your information been confirmed? My heart and prayers go out to all involved with this.
