According to Sweetwater County Deputy Dick Blust,Jr., last Friday, Deputy Sheriff Mike Merkley guided a recovery team from Beegles Aircraft Service of Greeley, Colorado, to the remote scene of a June 22nd plane crash on the western slopes of White Mountain about 13 miles north of Green River.
Unable to reach the crash site with their usual ground unit plus special transport trailer, Eddy Schumacher of Beegles Aircraft contacted pilot Bob Hawkins of Sky Aviation, based in Worland, who flew to the scene in a yellow 1969 Bell UH-1H helicopter - commonly called a “Huey,” the rotary-wing workhorse of the Vietnam conflict - to extract Van Amburg’s Beech.
