The story is still evolving, but first reports are that a float plane went down after takeoff. And it's in the middle of the fire the crash started. Prayers for all those on board.

185 amphibian

Another witness, Ryan Holden, said the plane's engine was very loud as it took off - much noisier than most of the float planes that take off from the lake.

Mr. Holden probably hasn't heard a 185 before. Those suckers are LOUD.

Carol Acocks, a witness, said she saw the float plane make three previous attempts to take off from the lake. She said the plane's two occupants got out, looked at the plane and attempted to take off again.

Hmmm.
