The pilot in this accident was seriously injured and his passenger died 
within the week.

There is an uncharted 1,000 ft airport on an island near downtown 
Knoxville. About a year ago a fellow from down there ask about buying a 
Lancair 320 and keeping it at that airport. I and several other list 
members recommended against using an airport that short for a Lancair.

The crash occurred on a road that runs right past that small airport. I 
think that fellow didn't take our advise.
