Lt. (jg) R. K. Fisher, 26, of Veedersburg, Ind., was killed yesterday afternoon when his AD Skyraider stalled and crashed in a cornfield near Cabaniss Field. Fisher was a student pilot attached to Advanced Training Unit 307. Navy spokesmen said the propeller-driven plane spun onto the field and exploded 100 yards off Chapman Ranch road during a runway approach. Fisher is survived by his wife, Margaret, and his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Darrell Fisher, all of Veedersburg.
