Two folks flew into instrument conditions and tried to fly back out without
success. Aircraft parts are scattered over a one mile radius.

Very unfortunate.


Would that be this one?

The time doesn't seem to match the news story:

The two-seat Cessna 150G went down around 11:30 a.m., said Sgt.
Robert Carpentieri. The victims were identified as Ira Nash, 34,
and Erika Nash, 28, of Fork, S.C., Carpentieri said. They had been
at a family reunion at Smith Mountain Lake and were en route to
Florence, S.C., when they ran into heavy fog and attempted to turn
around.


The 1966 Cessna 150 was apparently owned by Mr. Nash. If I understand
Mr. Nash's entry in the FAA Airmans Database correctly, it appears he
was issued his airmans certificate: 06/17/2006.
