Feb. 3rd, 1959
The Beechcraft cartwheeled across the field and came to rest against a fence. The pilot, Roger Peterson, is still inside.
In the middle distance lies the body of J.P. Richardson, testimony as to how hard the plane hit. (170 mph). There is a left foot in the foreground belonging to Richie Valens.
Holly is at the left, Valens at the right. Killed on impact. They are frozen solid.
What a waste.
