Thiel was killed on 9 November 1961 whilst returning from a geomagnetic survey mission to Mirny Station. The P2V-7 (Bu No.140439) Neptune aircraft from US Navy Squadron VX-6 in which he was a passenger crashed at Wilkes Station Antarctica, where it had refueled overnight, and was en route back to McMurdo Station.[2] References1. ^http://antarctica.kulgun.net/History/Wilkes/BUNO140439/thiel.shtml {{DEFAULTSORT:Thiel, Edward C.}}2. ^ 6 : 1928 births|1961 deaths|American geologists|University of Wisconsin–Madison alumni|University of Wisconsin–Madison faculty|Seismologists |
