The Standard Airliner that crashed on approach to Burbank, California on July 11, 1949 was an unscheduled New York to California flight. The Curtiss Wright C-46 crashed after beginning its descent into a cloud bank. A subsequent hearing held by the Civil Aeronautics Board considered pilot error as well as other factors. Among the oddities associated with this doomed flight was a fistfight between two passengers. This fracas occurred somewhere between 40 and 90 minutes before the crash. At least one surviving passenger remembered co-pilot Harold Tucker being knocked into the flight controls by one of the combatants.
