A harrowing tale from a Sandy Lake firefighter involved in yesterday's blaze at the community airport.

Ringo Fiddler says a Wasaya Airways plane was destroyed.

Fiddler says flames were shooting as high as 40-feet into the air and full fuel tanks were about 25-feet away.

He says firefighters had to fight the flames about 50-feet away from the blaze.
