== Flight history ==
Allegheny Airlines Flight 853, a DC-9-31, registration was a regularly scheduled flight departing Boston, Massachusetts, for St. Louis, Missouri, with stops in Baltimore, Cincinnati and Indianapolis. Captain James Elrod (47) and First Officer William Heckendorn (26) were at the controls. Elrod was a seasoned veteran, with more than 23,800 flight hours. The young co-pilot had accumulated close to 3,000 flight hours.〔http://libraryonline.erau.edu/online-full-text/ntsb/aircraft-accident-reports/AAR70-15.pdf〕 The flight departed Cincinnati at 3:15pm en route to Indianapolis. Allegheny 853, flying under Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) clearance to Indianapolis, was instructed by Indianapolis Approach Control to descend to 2500 feet after passing the Shelbyville VOR at 6000 feet. The flight was then vectored to a 280 degree heading.
Meanwhile, the private Piper PA-28 (N7374J), piloted by Robert Carey (34), was on a southeasterly heading. It was operating under a filed visual flight rules (VFR) flight plan which indicated a cruising altitude of 3500 feet. The PA-28 was not in communication with Air Traffic Control, and was not transponder equipped,〔("Death in the Skies" - ''Time'' magazine article )〕 and there was no evidence it appeared as a primary radar target on the radarscope.
