KHOG in Fayetteville reports that pilots Jimmy Franklin of Neosho and Bobby Younkin of Fayetteville, who died in a midair plane crash last week in Saskatchewan, were honored with a "hangar party" instead of a somber memorial.
The station quoted Mr. Franklin's son, Kyle Franklin, as saying that his father and Mr. Younkin were best friends and loved to "make the sky their stage."
Franklin said his father "loved the business, he loved to entertain...and Bobby was the same way."
The station reported that pilots flew vintage planes in formation to honor Mr. Franklin and Mr. Younkin.

KHOG is the ABC affiliate in Fayetteville, not Little Rock.
Of course, you are right. Where else would a station with those call letters be from. I will correct that immediately. Thanks.
