Sad news, did you hear about the Grumman Mallard that crashed yesterday? Everyone on board died when the wing came off in flight, 20 persons. Sad to hear, especially during the holiday season...

450k, yes its a new 604. Flew that one for 4 years until the owner retired (at the advanced age of 41!) and closed the flight department down. I flew this plane from the factory in Montreal to completion in Tucson when it was green.
