Greeley Daily Tribune from Greeley, Colorado �
Airliner Circles Airport 11/2 Hours Then LandsSafely 
BISMARCK.N.D. 
A Frontier Airlines passenger plane carrying eight passengers 
and three crewmen landed safely Wednesday after circling 
the Bismarck airport nearly an hour and a half, unable to retract its landing gear. 
The craft's pilot, Capt. C. K. Logue, Denver, 
landed the twin- engine DC3 smoothly after deciding to set the plane down 
when he discovered he couldn't pull his wheels up after taking off.

Thanks for info on CK Logue.
Can any of you give me more info for the Obituary page - age, when/where he worked at FL, 
where he lived, anecdotes, obituary, etc.?
Did he go by CK or another name?

He always went by CK.  His real name was Coyle ...something, but if you ever
called him that, you'd be his enemy forever!  He was sort of a loner but a
real great guy.  You really had to know him.
He was a copilot on B-17's during WWII...enlisted when the war broke out,
went through the cadet program.  No sooner graduated from cadets when
transitioned then assigned to B-17's and overseas.
I'll have a story to tell (in the newsletter) when I flew copilot for him.

I understand CK had a tumor between the heart and the spine.  The medics told
him they could operate...it would be a complicated procedure...but it could
be done.  When told of the chemo and other factors that lower quality of
life, etc., he elected to hang on for whatever time he had.  He was in a
Hospice at the time.  His final wishes were to have "...'no funeral, no
memorial service, no nothing."  Just to be buried where he was and that's that.

He gave an endowment of $750,000 giving $2500 scholarships annually.
I'll assume he started with Monarch Airlines since Ace Avakian flew co-pilot for him.
