Glenn in crash.

[Adam Frisch]

Take a minute to wish some speedy recovery to site owner and old Commander fellow Glenn Hancock. His immaculate Lockheed 12 crashed upon landing at home airport, thankfully I think all are in stable and good condition. I heard Glenn could get out, but the other 2 passengers were trapped until rescue service arrived. Thank god no fire.

Not religious, but agnostic prayers all around!

This is pretty telling and hoping all will be ok

Oh my!  Hate to hear that.  I met Glenn and spent time with him years ago when we were both getting our Commanders worked on in Tennessee.  Sure hope he recovers totally!  I will be praying for him.

That was Glenn? I had no idea.

Any truth to the rumor that Dan Gryder was in the right seat?

[Adam Frisch]

Yep, it seems Dan Gryder was one of the passengers!

Now I remember Glenn buying the Lockheed! Hope he has a quick recovery. The airplane looks fairly repairable, based on the pictures I saw.

So sorry Glenn! That is awful. Hope you are feeling better every day going forward.

Looks like the tail wheel was not locked before landing

Heard back from Glenn. He said he took the direkt hit of the tree and is pretty messed up, with a brain concussion etc, but otherwise fine. Glad he's well enough to repsond to my silly email - I'd sent one asking about how he polished the L12 just a few days before the crash and he responded with tips on polishing, so that's a good sign of recovery.

Yes..Prayers for all three. I ams ure he will come back with the strength to rebuild and fly again....
