Description: 

This location represents the small town where a forced landing on July 4, 1929, cost Jock his pilot's license. The text does not say where this town was, so its placement here is speculative, but it does say what happened: with a plane full of people who paid for a chance to fly, an engine failure forced him to land abruptly; when one of the passengers struck a match next to a broken gas line, the whole group perished in the fire.
