Air Force Base and the B-1B bomber itself.
-- The Reporter-News World Wide Web site -- Reporter OnLine
-- has extensive coverage of the crash.
"Within 30 minutes of the time the plane went down, we
had the word on the Internet," said Danny Reagan, director
of new media/technology at the paper. The pages will be updated.
The B-1 crash page is at http://texnews.com/1998/local/b-oneindex.html/.
