I was stunned when my son came in this evening and said that he had driven past a long lineup of emergency vehicles along Fallowfield road, not far from where I live. He checked it out and, incredibly, a small plane carrying two people crashed on their way to Ottawa airport, apparently having rerouted from their original plan for Carp airport in the city’s far west end.
A terrible tragedy at the worst time of year for families, the holidays amplifying all emotions, good and bad. The pilot did manage to avoid all building, although the plane took down electrical wires, knocking out local service.
Sad …
