Falmouth, Massachusetts – December 19, 1972

      On December 19, 1972 the co-owner of the Falmouth Airport and a passenger took off from the airport in a 31-year-old Taylorcraft airplane.  Just after becoming airborne the engine suddenly stopped due to carburetor icing, and the plane crashed into some nearby woods.  Neither of the occupants were injured, but the plane was a total loss.
