CONCORDIA - A single-engine Piper airplane crashed Saturday morning as it was taking off from Blosser Municipal Airport.

The pilot, Terry L. Lambert, 49, and passenger, Francis J. Williams, 45, both of Concordia, were not injured.

The patrol reported that Lambert and Williams were wearing seat belts.

The airplane was to be removed after the Federal Aviation Administration concluded its investigation.
