A deadly collision shook a Pennsylvania airport Wednesday night when a Cessna piloted by 57-year-old flight instructor Paul Sokoloski clipped a state police helicopter during a training exercise, killing Sokoloski and injuring two troopers. Investigators are now racing to analyze intact flight data cards from both aircraft—unusual since neither plane had traditional black boxes—to piece together what went wrong. The NTSB is examining the Cessna’s unexpected path and whether the pilot, who’d recently performed maintenance on his plane, was aware of the hovering helicopter. Wreckage is headed to Delaware for deeper analysis, and this weekend’s data review could finally reveal the critical moments before impact.
