Wow, I didn't know they were from Lebanon John, you probably know them?
A friend was on the lake and watched them go in.
He said one of the kids jumped out of the plane while it was still 15-20 feet in the air!! Yee Haw

Scouting for Elk. As soon as I got my pilot Certificate in 1984 people started asking if I would take them scouting for elk. Without seeing any stats, just knowing that each hunting season there seemed to be a lot of plane accidents that ended badly and the reports contained the "They were scouting for elk" line, I never did and never will.

Looks like the chopper pulled a bit too hard while the fuse was still full of water. Bent it. At least no people got bent.
