Scott Crossfield
Scott Crossfield, was killed yesterday at the age of 84 while piloting his Cessna 210A near Ranger, Georgia. Thunderstorms were reported in the area at the time and some speculate that weather was a factor in the crash. An aviation legend, Mr. Crossfield was the first man to fly at twice the speed of sound and later in life was inducted into the National Aviation Hall of Fame. More information, including some comments by Chuck Yeager, can be found at Yahoo! News: http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20060421/..._crossfield_12 Bryan
