Super Cub down Ma

Wonder if this is a case of water-skimming gone bad. :eek:
That's what I was wondering too. Witnesses say the engine was sputtering, but we both know how accurate they usually are.


Unfortunately the pilot didn't make it. RIP

No damage visible. Wonder if he ditched, flipped, and drowned?
 
Sad news. PYM to the Vinyard and return... fuel? age/medical issue? 1 mile short of the runway... we will have to wait for the NTSB report.
 
Saw it on channel 25 this afternoon. Sure has all the looks of a drowning after the nose went down. They were interviewing some folks who saw it this morning. The word nosedive was used at one point. Very sad. It was a beautiful morning to fly here.
 
81 year old pilot. Video of bystanders trying to rescue him from the aircraft.
