Default Full Scale Crash @ Triple Tree Aerodrome!

Happened late today. No information available yet except that the pilot and passenger walked away. Saying a prayer for Pat Hartness and all the folks at Triple Tree and the Joe Nall. Looks like Pat's Stearman hit the trees along the flightline and crashed. News reports says the pilot and passenger will be okay. So very sad. Glad they are okay.

EDIT: This is no longer Pat Hartness's plane. It was sold to another pilot, and is a part of a ride operation elsewhere. The pilot and passenger were flying at Triple Tree when this occured.
