This Happens Too Often Dept: Two people were killed in a plane crash Saturday night in the Kasilof area, according to Clint Johnson, head of the National Transportation Safety Board.
"Owner and pilot, Brian Nolan, age 69 of Kasilof, and passenger Peter Lahndt, age 57 of Kasilof were declared deceased on scene," Alaska State Troopers wrote in a dispatch. The victim's next of kin have been notified.
The plane which was a Cessna 180, was reported to have crashed approximately 3.2 miles down South Coho Loop, according to troopers. When troopers arrived on scene, the plane was on fire.

Bear bait... Too bad Darwin didn't win that round... sigh
Fell much better soon Padre..
I'm glad you are feeling better. If you can, keep Dad in your prayers, his heart is failing and I don't know if he will be with us til Christmas. Granted, at 95, he's had a full and blessed life but I've lost a mom, a step mom and my only sibling, so his passing will be hard.
Hugs
NFO - if they're not attacked/mauled by the bears, it's only the grace of God that prevented it.
Rob - thank you.
Brigid - done and done. Check your e-mail.
