On the day of November 18 2012 Snow Lake Manitoba fell to what I call a Small Town Tragedy. The only member of the town that was in the plane is deceased after crashing while pioliting the plane, also 7 members of a mining company in the town named Dumas are injured but currently in stable condition. It was about 10 am when the plane wen’t down. A passenger called 911. Many people rushed to the hospital to prepare themselves for the injured. The https://i0.wp.com/www.agefriendlymanitoba.ca/files/regions/121/logo/CoA_UM_Snow%20Lake_Welcome%20Sign_web.JPG RCMP rushed out a Hercules to fly around in the air and many people showed up to the airport. The crash site was said to be about 10km out of the airport into the bush. It was in a heavily wooded area.  The investigation that the Federal Transportation Saftey Board is running is still in the process. It seems the plane was operating fine when it took off and we are still unsure of what caused it.  I give my deepest sympathies to the family of the pilot. I know them and I know it was hard but they  have shown strength through this tragedy and I know they will pull through.

    This is a pretty good post… like the writing of it. The story is extremely tragic. Anyways you made it sound very sensative and thoughtful, and that is really great as specially because we all know these people and their families.
