On July 27, 2002, an SU-27 fighter jet crashed into a crowd of spectators during an airshow at Lvov (Lviv) International Airport, killing 83 and injuring 115; it was the world's worst air show crash.

New city: Charleston, SC

Lvov is where Sacher-Masoch was born; I was thinking of that.  (It was called Lemberg back then.)

Charleston is famous for Fort Sumter, and also has to be one of the most astonishingly racist cities I have ever visited in the U.S.

The first is Pierson B. Reading. He was one of the pioneers of the lumber industry in Shasta County. He began lumbering in 1843. He and his partner received a Spanish land grant for 26,000 acres near the Sacramento River. He built a home and settled in, also planting the state's first cotton and Northern California's first grapevines.
