Thanks for the link.

I lived in AK from 1995 til 2007. Have friends in Dillingham and a brother in law that works for Northern Air Cargo. Hoping for the best.

Kinda thought this was the case, although right now the major media is not saying.

Some folks just need to get a life.

The pilot was Terry Smith, retired Alaska Airlines pilot. His son-in-law was killed in a plane crash just two weeks ago. Very sad.
