Just saw on FOX News that the following C-45 is down at or near Boulder City, CO...

C-45 Expeditor 51-11455

Hope all is well with the crew and passengers, if any...

Two PAX pulled from wreck by bystanders, sent to hospital. The crash clipped power lines and started fires. It was from Midland.

All the media coverage I am seeing is saying they got out alive & conscious. I hope for once the media is accurate in their reporting. My thoughts & prayers are with them.
