The pilot is 82 year old Peter Garrison with more than 60 years
flying experience. His plane is hangared at pitt meadows airport. Last
year he had a landing incident at Pitt meadows (cypk) with his piper
seneca and it had just been recertified. Some witnesses said the plane
was circling the area before the crash and appeared the have a problem
with it's landing gear. I however don't hold alot of regard in eye
witnesses reports unless they are trained pilots or crash
investigators. Once the TSB report comes out then we will know the
real cause of this unfortunate accident.

My sympathy to the family of the decesed pilot and to the tennants of
the building that is now condemed!

The new condo residents surrounding Northerly Island can sleep well
knowing that the chances of Kamikazi strikes are low. JG
