En-Route
Aircraft departing KMGY reported down near the intersection of of I675 and I75. Two survivors found so far. No word on their condition at this time. The aircraft clipped power lines during what appears to be an emergency landing.
Police tell WKEF-TV that the pilot admitted to drinking.
The FAA is investigating. Right now, it's unclear why the plane went down, but on its way down, police say it crashed into a couple of power lines.
Police say that the two victims in the plane were both adult men. It's unclear where they were coming from or going to, but they were up and walking when authorities arrived and shouting for help.
The pilot also told police he knew he was going down so he shut off his fuel lines, which is why it wasn't a "gruesome" plane crash -- and likely why he and his passenger survived.
Can you read the tail number on that mooney?

Thanks! Doesn't look familiar. Now for the real story!
First post. I'm returning to flying (SEL) after some years and have been interested in evaluating used aircraft while lurking here. I'd appreciate it if you'd clarify what I think I understand.
1. There are no free price evaluations of aircraft such as is found in the Kelly Blue Book for cars.
2. myairplane.com provides an effective look at the FAA view of GA by tail number by providing the reports they do have.
3. Aircraft tail numbers, "Nxxxxx," are not in use by two aircraft at the same time.
(Note: I ask #3 because of an interesting issue recently that arose in the discussion regarding the new ad rule in "Site Feedback and Support." As one example of a horror story, there is a link to a 1966 "Uboat Mooney," with tail number N199Q clearly showing in the pic, while myairplane.com lists N199Q as being a twin Beech involved in an accident in 1999.)
I don't yet belong to AOPA, so do I have any options when it comes to getting advice on price or gear that's no longer supportable or possibly constructed from unobtanium?
Thanks.
Well that is interesting!

Excuse my ignorance here. N9218M is the same aircraft? Salvage? It doesn't look damaged just parted out.

Not the kind of night wx most of us fly in.

Looks like that dude rooked someone into buying the Uboat Mooney. I hope he gets his six sued off, so he can't attempt to murder anyone else.
Hmmmm..
FAA spokeperson Tony Molinaro said the plane is a “small Mooney aircraft.” According to the FAA website, Morgan has been a pilot since July 2012..
High time pilot minted last year... What could possibly go wrong..
That is some strong reporting
There is not anything concerning about that.Not the kind of night wx most of us fly in.

Dave, drop the hate, had it been a cirrus they would have had more options
Dunno.
Does a BRS still work after being submersed several years prior?
