Kitty Holland in the Irish Times details the amazing story of Séan Killeen. Séan and his father-in-law Joe Beardmore were travelling as part of a dream fly fishing holiday in remote Alaska. As part of the itinerary of the trip, the two were flying out from Lake Clark after a day of fishing in a small DHC-2 single-propeller Beaver plane. A few minutes into the flight disaster struck. After suffering an engine failure, the plane was forced to crash land into the Alaskan wilderness. Joining Anton to tell the story was Séan.
