It’s a day of remembrance on the campus of the University of Evansville.
It was on this date, 45 years ago, that an airplane carrying the entire U of E men’s basketball team crashed shortly after take-off.
All 29 people aboard were killed.
Air Indiana Flight 216 was a D-C-3 en-route from Evansville Regional Airport to Nashville International carrying the team to play a game at Murfreesboro.
