Stewart Kissell
Colorado soaring pilot Stewart Kissell perished Friday in the crash of
his Ventus on Methodist Mountain after towing out of Salida, Colorado. A search involving 11 CAP aircraft and other local pilots was started at 7am Saturday morning after he failed to return from the Friday flight. The wreckage was spotted about 7:30pm Saturday and searchers reached the rugged, remote site about three hours later. Stewart was son of Emil Kissell, a long time California soaring pilot. He was an occasional contributor to RAS and frequently corresponded with me on SSA, soaring safety, and other flight topics and was moderator of the high country Chaffee (County) Soaring Yahoo Group. Frank Whiteley SSA Governor, Colorado
