Kings Mountain Airplane crash in the 1950s video
In 1953 a DC 6 was flying its last leg from Sydney to San Francisco when it misjudged its approach and crashed into Kings Mountain. All 8 crew members and 11 passengers were killed. In January 2009 Mid Peninsula Open Space gave permission, after several years of lobbying, to have a plaque placed at the site. The plaque was placed in June. This news reel was from the original 1950's report. For more information about this tragic event go to www.flightoftheresolution.org
