clipping about what was in June 1975 the worst single-plane disaster in
U.S. history. Coincidentally, Ted Owens, at that very time was on
an airplane behind the one that crashed, heading into Kennedy Airport.
The clipping on the right is part of a Saga magazine article by
Otto Binder about Ted Owens. It includes an illustration of airplane
crashes caused by lightning in the Chesapeake Bay area -- that followed
an earlier demonstration. Owens, was in first class, enjoying the
free liquor, and showing the Saga
magazine to the stewardesses.
