Civil Air Patrol's N98763 Crashes On Kaua‘i

Civil Air Patrol's Cessna 172P Skyhawk, N98763 (msn 172-76344), with two aboard, crashed in the mountains northwest of Kekaha, as it was performing a monthly tsunami warning practice flight. The Skyhawk, flying as CAP5163, departed LIH for a circle-island flight, but went down in the mountains above Kokeʻe, both aboard perished.

The HNL RareBirds team expresses our condolences to the families of the two aboard, as well as the CAP community.
