3 families perished in Mont. Plane crash
BUTTE, Mont. - Speculation over the crash of a single-engine turboprop plane into a cemetery shifted to ice on the wings yesterday after it became less likely that overloading was to blame, given that half of the 14 Californians on board were small children. Ref. Source 1
Every thing points to ice. I think the pilot did not get a complete weather summary or forecast before he took off. Either that or he skipped on the amount of deicing he placed on his craft. Either way he iced up and now three families are pretty much gone.
