Windy conditions were reported the day a Civil Air Patrol airplane crashed near Storm Mountain in Larimer County, killing the pilot and a photographer on board and seriously injuring another passenger. The Cessna 182T crashed near Drake at 11:15 a.m. Nov. 23, nearly two hours after taking off from Northern Colorado Regional Airport in Loveland to capture aerial photos for Red Cross emergency response planning, National Transportation Safety Board officials wrote in the report released Friday.
