Cleo Lands Plane in Canal-A twin engined DC-3, securely tied down at Opalacka airport, was airborn by the 125 mile an hour gusts of wind generated by hurricane Cleo, and deposited more then a mile away in a deep canal that fringed the field. Resting in the canal the cargo plane was wet, but undamaged, and will again fly, but with a pilot at it's controls.
