Yesterday May 7, 2004 a 1942 vintage Cessna T-50 popularly known as a bamboo
bomber was lost near Sharon, MA. The pilot was killed and the aircraft
destroyed. The pilot reported some kind of engine problem and was apparently
planning to ditch in a nearby reservoir but crashed on land. Pilot was from
New Hampshire and had only bought the aircraft just hours before. Pictures
on
the TV news show a very small impact area with a concentrated pile of
wreckage.


Any more info on this? Perhaps a link to the story? An friend from NH
has a Bamboo Bomber and I can't contact him. I haven't found anything
in the FAA database yet, Goggle isn't turning up anything.

Thanks.

There is nothing - absolutely nothing - half so much worth doing
as simply messing around with airplanes.
