Latest update from FOX40: 1 dead in plane crash at Sutter County Airport - FOX40. CLEVELAND, Ohio (WJW) - Emergency crews gathered Wednesday at Burke Lakefront Airport to simulate a plane crashing short of the runway and crashing into Lake Erie. The training exercise brought together first responders from the airport itself, the U.S. Coast Guard, the Ohio Department of Natural Resources, Cleveland Division of Police, Cleveland Division of Fire, and several suburban departments with water rescue teams. While the FAA mandates triannual full-scale disaster drills, airport leaders scheduled Wednesday’s exercise specifically to address Burke’s unique location along the Lake Erie shoreline. "As we know, we hope that they’re never needed, but in the case that they are, to know that everyone knows what everyone’s responsibility is, where they’re coming from, what resources they’re bringing and how we can better utilize them, it’s critical," said Joel Woods, Burke’s senior manager of general aviation.
