Soldier Killed, Brother Paralyzed in Crash on Flight to Scatter Father's Ashes
Boston Herald 28 Aug 2018 By Jordan Graham

Scott Landis, a National Guardsman from Hanson, was piloting a single-engine plane, ready to sprinkle his father's ashes with his brother, when the plane's engine lost power on takeoff and crashed into a pond, killing him and severely injuring his brother, according to friends and officials.

"Salt of the earth, a great guy. Scott is just a great guy, always willing to help anybody out, do anything, a gentleman," said Peter Oakley, manager of the Cranland Airport in Hanson, where the plane crashed.
