305 380 #4 Posted February 3, 2016 i was born in 1953 so i don't have memories of when it actually happened , but i was aware of the event when i landed a Mooney at the Mason City airport one day in the summer of 1971. i met the owner of Dwyer's Flying service , he actually talked very openly about it. i believe they still own the wreckage 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
