UD Aviation Accident

Hey everyone,
I'm not sure how far the news traveled, but I wanted to let everyone know that there was an aircraft accident yesterday afternoon involving two University of Dubuque flight students. Fortunately, I was not involved, but my friend and former cross country teammate was one of the pilots. Right now the two gentlemen are still in critical condition at the University of Wisconsin Hospitals in Madison, WI. I first learned about the accident from my former roommate who got a call from his former student who was at the flight center. From then on, all details were provided by the local news. I don't have any insight into the cause of the crash, but a full NTSB investigation will be taking place. If you want to read the news and press releases here are a list of sites with coverage. Just wanted to let everyone know that I'm ok.
