Description
Everything about the day was typical, family and friends of Bill Anders said.
It was typical for him to take a plane from the Heritage Flight Museum he founded in Skagit County to fly his typical "Orcas run," past his previous home in the San Juan Islands. He texted a family friend, and former neighbor, who lived on Orcas Island, letting her know he would be flying by soon. That was typical, she told investigators.
It was all typical until it wasn't.
At about 11:40 a.m. on June 7, Anders' plane crashed into the Puget Sound waters of Deer Harbor. The latest preliminary report from the National Transportation Security Board (NTSB) shares new details about the minutes leading up to the fatal crash.
