FINDINGS ON
| PLANE CRASH
—
tane fuel or higher on takeoffs foi
that airplane, which was a two-en
gine C-46 Commando.
| The plane struck three poles just
| north of Boeing Field, Seattle, car
ried away the top story of a three
story house and plunged into a
single-story house.
Two of the 28 passengers in the
j plane and five persons outside the
plane were killed. Ten persons, in
cluding the pilot, Merle Edgerton,
were seriously injured,
j The Board report said the plane
| reached an altitude of about 20
feet, then, because the left engine
was not working well, the throttles
were retarded and the plane settled
back to the runway. The pilot, be
lieving that he did not have enough
' runway remaining to stop safely,
changed his decision, the Board
said, and took off again, with the
, left engine still misfiring.

feet below its top.

■ attle weather conditions, in plane
I performance with either grade of
fuel.

fused to send along, a test observer
