Illinois Plane Crash Highlights Risks of General Aviation
A Cessna C180G plane crashed in Trilla, Illinois on Saturday, killing all four occupants. The National Transportation Safety Board will investigate the accident, which occurred shortly after departure from Menomonie, Wisconsin. This incident follows a recent spate of fatal plane crashes across the country, including a Nebraska crash on Friday and several others earlier this month. The string of fatal aviation accidents this year has raised concerns. Governor Pritzker offered condolences and urged the public to cooperate with law enforcement at the crash site.
