My uncle was killed in aircraft accident in WWII, 1940 something. Is
it possible to get the accident report on the crash? I know very
little about the crash. He was flying out of Denver for a feeder
airline. He was not flying he was the stew. He was a pilot working his
was up. They crash into the Rockies. The account I heard was the bean
went askew and directed them in to the mountain.

I don't know if it is possible to get accident report that old. If it
is what information do I need?

It is perhaps the United Airlines accident in November, 1940, near Salt
Lake City, where the navigation system had been acting up, and the aircraft
flew into a mountain?
