The well-known husband-and-wife aircraft restoration team of Dave and Jeanne Allen died in the crash of their 1934 Waco YKC in a Kansas field last week. No witnesses to the crash have come forward, so the FAA is stating the plane crashed under “unknown circumstances.” The Allens lived in Elbert, Colorado, and it’s not clear why they were in Kansas.

The accident occurred just after 6 p.m. about 10 miles north of Hoxie in Sheridan County. A post-crash fire consumed the plane.

The crashed airplane was well known to antique aircraft enthusiasts. It won the 2013 AirVenture Antique Grand Champion, the 2013 Antique Airplane Association Grand Champion, and the 2014 Sun ‘n Fun Antique Airplane Grand Champion awards.
