Sheri Poore
Tri-State Neighbor columnist
My husband, Kirk Evenson, was the guest columnist in the June 16 issue of the Tri-State Neighbor, relating the story of our flight in his Cessna T210 in early May. That was the first half; here’s the second half of his narrative.
"My plane is loaded for bear when it comes to instrument flight. It’s a safe plane. It’s a well-maintained plane. I say all this to give you a heads up and warn you that what happened on our flight home was not normal."
Lt. Will Backus, left, and Chad Schubert, both of the Freeport (Illinois) Central Fire Station, responded when the emergency call came through from flight control.
