Glad they're OK.

N Number is 6616L, model just says AA-1. The crash site is on the runway centerline, something on departure.

6616L is in the FAA database as being a Piper and cancelled in 1977.

I've read that the AA-1 models can be a little tricky at times. Hope they pull thru.

I was airborne on the same frequency when it went down. Didn't hear anything from them but did hear someone call out that a plane went down at Tipton.
