Middletown plane crash survivor remains critical

Keith Ulich, the sole survivor of Thursday's plane crash in Middletown that killed the aircraft's other two occupants, remains in critical condition this afternoon at Rhode Island Hospital, according to a hospital spokeswoman.

The single-engine Piper PA-28 went down that night at Newport State Airport, some 700 feet from the runway.

The state police this week identified the dead as Pamela Ulich Lancaster, 43, who owned and ran the Dragonfly Inn, at 33 Russell Ave., and Charles W. Thompson, 63, of 4 Manning Court, a flight instructor. Keith Ulich, of Newport, is the husband of Ulich Lancaster.
