Hunter down off US East Coast

Post by EGDR » Mon Jun 20, 2022 8:34 pm

Just recieved a report that ATAC N337AX has crashed off the coast of Wilmington, NC.

Reportedly heard on GIANT KILLER on http://LIVEATC.net.

Looks like N344AX circled the crash site for some time and is now RTB. FLYTRON10 and CPS11 are also in the area as well.

Have checked the LiveATC archive, it's true. Pilot has been recovered by a vessel with serious injuries.
