"News Report" by the local paper ....

Pilot is Brian Milner. He is in the hospital with a cervical compression injury.
Treatment not yet determined.
He is in pain but otherwise fine.
Rescue involved 2 helicopters which must be a record.
This will be an interesting rescue story to be told by folks that were there.
