I went to the airport this morning for a fun flight. As I neared the airport entrance there was a stream of emergency vehicles entering.
There is an aircraft down in the grass beside 13.
That's all I know for sure. I didn't want to try to get closer and possibly cause problems for the emergency crews.
Here are some details I got from the linemen. They may or may not be accurate.
The pilot was the only one on board the aircraft.
The fusilage looks intact but the wings are gone.
There's gas all over the place.
I'll go back later to see if I can get more info.
Edit:
The wind this morning was from 160 at 15 gusting to 21. It doesn't seem like that should be a problem.
