Doctor expects recovery for 2 musicians in crash
The medical director of the burn hospital where former Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker and DJ AM are being treated says both men are expected to make full recoveries.
The musicians were critically injured in a South Carolina plane crash that killed four people late Friday.
Dr. Fred Mullins said Sunday morning that both men are being treated for second- and third-degree burns at a Georgia hospital. Mullins says recovery from such burns can take as long as a year but notes the men had no other injuries.

COLUMBIA, SC (WIS) - Doctors at the Joseph M. Still Burn Center in Augusta say former Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker and celebrity Adam Goldstein, aka DJ AM, are "doing fine" after a fiery plane crash that killed four others at the Columbia Metropolitan Airport.
Dr. Fred Mullins, director of the burn center, painted a good outcome for Barker and Goldstein.
"I think these gentlemen are going to have a full recovery," Mullins said.
Mullins said Barker had burns on his torso and lower body while Goldstein is suffering from burns on his head and one of his arms. He said both men were suffering second to third degree burns. He would not say what percentage of their bodies were burned.
Dr. Claus Brandigi also gave a good report on the pair's condition.
"They're both right where they ought to be," Brandigi said.
According to the doctors, despite their burns, both men did not suffer any sort of other injuries in the crash.
Barker and Goldstein remain in critical, but stable condition. Doctors say both men should be able to return to performing after they have healed from their burns in a year.
