Oklahoma Wreckchasing Forums

I am requesting a list of the names of the original 15 survivors of this
plane crash who were alive on April 22, 1966.
Thank you

The Daily Oklahoman for 24 April 1966 has a listing of those who survived:

• Charles Hinebaugh, Nashville, TN
• Daniel McNutt, San Diego, CA
• James Gorman, Bellerose, NY
• David Thomas, Montgomery AL
• Teddy Edwards, Gillette, WY
• Rosalio Tobias, San Marcos, TX
• Ronald Gugliuzza, Buffalo, NY
• Nicholas Leone Jr, Toms River, NJ
• Joseph Deeney, Lindenwold, NJ
• Robert Dwyer, Glen Cove, NY
• Ralph Johnson, Yonkers, NY
• Peter Scaramuzzo, home town not known

Unfortunately, it seems I didn't copy the entire article so what I have is a partial listing. I'll have to dig up the rest of the article on my next library visit.

Or can anyone else complete the list?

According to a UPI release the day after the crash, the following were survivors of American Flyers Flt 280
