TACOMA, Wash. -- Two small planes have collided over Tacoma and one of
them with two people on board crashed into Commencement Bay near
Tacoma.
Here's a more recent story:
http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/local/...collision.html
The pilot of the plane that went down in Commencement Bay was
taking his mother to Gig Harbor for lunch when the collision
occurred shortly after 12:30 p.m. over the bay that sits west of
Tacoma's port, Williams said.
Both were taken to local hospitals after being fished out of the
water. The woman, who is in her early 70s, was suffering from mild
hypothermia, Williams said.
After landing, the man and woman climbed out of the plane and hung
on until it started sinking. Williams said the plane sank in 400
feet of water less than a mile off the shore of Tacoma's Ruston
Way.
I wonder what the water temperature is up there in late November?
