[Rhodes22-list] Flying in Alaska

[Michael D. Weisner]

John,

It appears to be a real story.  The plane is registered to Jonathan L Miller 
in Anchorage, AK according to the FAA: 
(http://registry.faa.gov/aircraftinquiry/NNum_Results.aspx?NNumbertxt=9368d)

Some of the other stories refer to it as "Cub mauled by a brown bear" since 
it is a Piper Super Cub.  Interesting story and pix.  Thanks.

Mike
