N90858 North Central Airlines (w/o mid-air collision)

Convair 580 (cn 81) Seen being refueled at Port Columbus, Ohio in January, 1971. On June, 29, 1972, on approach for a landing at Oshkosh, WI, it collided with an Air Wisconsin DHC-6 Twin Otter at 2,500 feet and both aircraft fell into Lake Winnebago.

 

Above the Sohio fuel truck is the wonderful observation deck where I spent many pleasant hours, and on the other side of the terminal is a TWA CV880 and 707.
