RESULTS
FROM
FORCED
LANDING
WINNIPEG,
February
G:
(CP)
The
civil
aviation
branch
of
the
federal
Department
of
Transport
announced
today
that
a
TransCanada
Air
Lines
plane,
which
had
been
missing
for
several
hours
with
crew
of
three
and
nine
passengers,
had
been
located
from
the
air
about
one
mile
south
of
the
landing
field
at
Armstrong
in
northwestern
Ontario.
AH
on
board
were
killed
in
the
crash.
The
plane
was
piloted
by
Capt.
W.
E.
Twiss,
formerly
of
Vancouver,
with
the
passengers
believed
to
include
E.
C.
Manning,
chief
forester
for
British
Columbia
and
Mrs.
R.
D.
Carter
of
Vancouver.
There
was
no
immediate
word
as
to
the
safety
or
otherwise
of
those
on
board
but
later
it
was
announced
they
had
perished.
The
plane
was
on
its
way
from
Montreal
to
Winnipeg,
It
left
Montreal
last
night
and
the
last
word
received
from
it
was
early
today
when
it
was
ncaring
Armstrong
with
the
intention
of
landing
there
which,
however,
it
failed
to
do.
..

.
.
jittJ
Mr.
Manning
is
very
well
known
in
Prince

having
several
years
ago
been
district
forester
here.
He
was
a
member
of
Tyee
Lodge
A.F.
and
A.M.
It
was
at
3:47
this
morning
that
the
pilot
advised
Armstrong
airport
by
radio
that
he
was
making
the
usual
routine
landing
there!
Therefore,
it
is
believed
to
have
been
a
short
time
after
that
that
the
crash
occurred.
Resides
Manning
and
Mrs.
Carter,
passengers
are
believed
to
have
