While replacing a through wall vent this morning, I discovered a small fortune hidden inside. The house was designed and built in 1959 by Joseph Eichler, for Dr. Foley. We purchased it from his wife in 2012, and have slowly been restoring and maintaining the integrity of the home. There was a terrible accident in 1984 https://www.upi.com/Archives/1984/0...lifornia-to-Illinois-with/9134462254400/ that shook our little town at the time. His mother and father have since past, but his brother lives in the Sacramento area. I will attempt to locate him and return his brothers treasure.

Nice find and a good deed, to return them.
I wish my Wheat pennies, where as organized as those. Mine are in wrappers, and jars with some organized by years, but not Mint. I guess I need to get busy. lol

So this assortment/collection of pennies has special value, or just sentimental?
So what was FAA finding on crash, odd a small plane "explodes" in mid air at altitude(?) and sounds intact(?) after impact with ground, and found on fire?
Interesting and odd, IMO.

Estimated cash value is estimated to be $50.00 To me, the sentimental value would be priceless. I don’t remember hearing any further details surrounding the crash. At that time, I was a Paramedic working in the same hospital as the involved Dr.’s, so there was very little gossip passing through the halls.

The first I bad remark I heard about Doctors being bad pilots and flying involve the Beech Craft Bonanza V tail single engine air planes that a lot of doctors bought and flew in the early to late 1950s, the bad mouth was they where knowns as the forked tail doctor killers in the general aviation groups Those airplane had a well known history of knocking the tail off when they exceeded the VNE, velocity never exceed speed. The story went along that most of the Dr. always being in a hurry and not watching the air speed indicator when descending and BANGO goes the tail My first night of ground school for getting the training needed to fly as a private pilot, the instructor said 95% or more of general aviation (private pilots) accidents where pilot errors I thought to myself that has to be baloney sauce, nobody is stupid enough to kill themselves in a airplane, BOY was I WRONG about that Sounds like this pilot got into conditions he wasn't competent to fly successfully in

Thanks 272 Knots max recorded on radar would not seem to be enough as a layman to knock the wings off a twin turbo prop. Looks like to me, poor choice of routing, in severe unpredictable weather, that broke up the ACFT.
