Condolences to family and those affected. Bot a very good week for GA and Cessna 210s in particular. Hope its the last fatality we hear for a long while.

The pilot has now been named, he was 40 yr old Sam Ferns. The crash site is in inaccessible heavily vegetated terrain, so a bulldozer was called in, to cut a track into the crash site.
