I'm interested in knowing anything more about the crash of a Boeing 247 operated by United Airlines which crashed on October 10 1933 near Chesterton, Indiana. This aircraft, with 7 aboard of whom all were killed, was suspected to have been brought down by an explosive device. That device and the suspect to whom it belonged were never found conclusively and the case of this downed airliner remains unsolved.

A witness
Rick Vulpita has approached me to say he has located a 94 year old who was witness at first hand to the explosion, crash and aftermath of the downing of the United Boeing 247. Amazing! I'm glad there's someone still around who remembers this incident first hand.
