The Tualatin plane wreck you never heard about

Written By Ross Baker

In 1952 a B29 Superfortress collided with a F94 Starfire between Tualatin and Wilsonville. The B29 crashed to the ground, taking down sections of a Bonneville Power Administration powerline and killing all 11 crewmen. Join Yvonne Addington and Brian Clopton as they discuss this little know local topic. Many thanks to TVCTV for their continued support in helping us share Tualatin's History with our community.
