It was a sad day for volunteers of Angel Flight Northeast after a Piper Seneca on a mission for the group crashed in Upstate New York on Friday, killing a cancer patient, his wife and the pilot.
The airplane had taken off from Hanscom Field near Bedford, Massachusetts, with the brain cancer patient — whose body has not been recovered — and his spouse on board. A Connecticut man piloted the volunteer medical flight, which crashed in a wooded area at about 5 p.m. in Garoga, midway between Albany and Syracuse.
