Accidents and incidents[]

  • October 24, 1992: A Cessna 150M, registration number N7878U, impacted terrain nose-down after the pilot lost control during an abrupt turn to dodge an unidentified runway obstruction on landing. The aircraft was destroyed; the pilot and sole occupant was seriously injured and could not recall the nature of the obstruction due to head injuries. The accident was attributed to "The pilot's failure to maintain aircraft control and the inadvertent stall. A factor was the pilot's evasive maneuver to avoid an undetermined object."[5]
