This *really* sucks. :(:(

A Cessna 550 carrying six members of the University of Michigan Survival Flight Team crashed into Lake Michigan at 5:05 p.m. today en route to Willow Run Airport from Milwaukee’s General Mitchell International Airport....

....They were transporting a donor organ for a patient who was awaiting a transplant at U-M Hospital. The surgery was postponed and U-M officials say the donor recipient remains in critical condition....

...FAA said there was no word of survivors...
