The owner-pilot died in the crash of a small, home-built single-engine aircraft near Calhoun Tuesday. Federal Aviation Administration investigators say the craft crashed in the woods after department from a Gordon County Airport around 2 p.m. The pilot, 77-year-old Roy Gardner Russom, was the the only one onboard. Friends at the airport said he'd been working on building small craft for the past three to four years. The plane burst into flames on impact and was destroyed.
