Flight designations, route, and crewAt 10:48 p.m. EDT on 17 June 1979, Flight 248, with eight passengers and a crew of two, crashed in a heavily wooded area in the Yarmouth Port section of Yarmouth, Massachusetts, about 1.5 miles (2.4 km) northeast of Barnstable Municipal Airport while on an instrument landing system (ILS) approach.[1] The crash occurred on the end of a flight from LaGuardia Airport in New York, New York. The aircraft, piloted by Air New England co-founder George Parmenter, was several miles short of the runway. CrashThe aircraft crashed in the middle of Camp Greenough, a heavily wooded Boy Scouts of America camp. Parmenter was killed in the crash. The co-pilot and several passengers were injured. One passenger, 19-year-old Suzanne Mourad, who was not injured, managed to make her way through the thick brush to the Mid Cape Highway (Route 6) and flagged down a passing motorist. The motorist drove her to the airport, where she alerted authorities to the crash. Rescuers, with the aid of a brush-clearing truck were able to cut a swath through the brush to the crash site, and aid the survivors.[2] BookIn June 2009, author Robert Sabbag, who was one of the passengers on board Air New England Flight 248, released a book called Down Around Midnight (Viking Adult, {{ISBN|978-0-670-02102-4}}), a first-hand account of the crash from survivors and rescuers.[3] See also
