    Terrible news - Cam Lancaster

    Not sure what the appropriate forum is for this, but I expect that the people who knew him would frequent here the most.

    I just heard that Cam Lancaster was killed in a plane crash yesterday. He went down in thick timber with his Super Cub. Apparently he was still breathing when they found him, but expired shortly thereafter. Leaves behind a wife and 4 kids.

    Terrible loss.

    Was just at my Dad's place and he told me what happened. I am sure to get more details via his connections.

    Horrible tragedy and I feel for his wife and kids.

    Thats really terrible, my thoughts go out to his friends and family.

    Wasn't he in a plane or Helicopter crash in Russia last year or the year before?

    Its always some consolation to me when someone goes doing what they love the most. Cam was way too young though....and I really feel terrible for his wife and kids.

    He had a real close call with the helicopter crash on his Marco Polo hunt a few years ago too. Lots of risk in his chosen occupation/pastime and I guess it catches up to you eventually.

    BCRams...maybe you can confirm if one of his guides was with him? I heard there was, and that he survived, but I don't know who or if he was hurt badly.

    Crappy. Really crappy.

    I was just watching some of their Guide's Eye Sheep videos last night.

    My condolences to his family and freinds.

    That just sucks. I was just a the funeral for a local pilot yesterday and now yet another. Deepest sympathy to those touched by him.

    I read that there had been a plane crash but this is the first I heard who it is.
