Passengers Escape
Hu riling Plane
GRAND ISLAND. Neb. Uft -
Quick action by two young mili
tary school cadets and the steward
ess cleared the way for 40 passen
gers and a crew of three to
scramble from a burning Frontier
Airlines plane at the Grand Island
A'rport Friday night.
With the plane on its back and
flames bursting out in a severed
wing section. Cadets Ron Hender
son. 10, of Gering, Neb., and Frank
Flicker, 16, of Scottsbluff, Neb.,
along with stewardess Pat Reed of
Aurora, Colo., quickly opened the
two exits and ushered everyone
out. Five were hospitalized, but
all were reported in good condi
tion.
As the plane approached the
field, pilot Joe Romano, 40, of Den
ver. told his passengers there was
a ground fog that made the ap
proach hazardous.
As Capt. Romano finished his
announcement, Henderson turned
to a fellow passenger and com
mented that the landing could be
rough.
“We’d better fasten our seat
belts good and tight,” he said.
"The next thing I knew the
plane flipped over,” Henderson
said.
The plane touched ground, skid
ded about a half mile before flip
ping over. It came to a stop about
a half mile short of the runway.
As the plane skidded the left wing
was torn off and burst into flames.
Twenty-two passengers were
sped to a hospital for examination
and five were kept for treatment.
The twin-engine Convair was
enroute from Kansas City to
Denver.
In Northern Europe, where Santa
Claus arrives on a white horse,
boys and girls put out food for
the horse.
