HI Jim: There were some real good photos taken from an aircraft on the Paducah TV station and the Paducah paper. The vessel hit a span three over from the navigation span. If he had gone a little more to starboard he would have hit the right descending bank. The good news is as I see it the navigation span is wide open and clear so that the tow traffic can keep moving.
