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. Pilot Susan Wolber and photographer Jay Rhoten died in the crash while passenger Randall Settergren was seriously injured. Settergren told NTSB investigators the group had finished their mission, which included flying large circles over mountain roads and a valley, and he thought they were headed back to the airport when the plane seemed to encounter a downdraft. Over a few seconds, Settergren recalled the pilot, Wolber, cursing and starting to turn the plane before the aircraft dropped and started hitting trees.
