Presumably, the pilot was flying on an instrument flight plan, as the flight maintained a cruise altitude of 7,000 feet (and ADS-B groundspeed of 125 to 130 knots) until about 12:53 p.m. The pilot’s adult twin son and daughter were on board and also died in the tragic crash. local time, roughly three hours into the flight.

The fiancé told air traffic control that his formation partner had a partial loss of engine power, was trailing smoke, declared an emergency for the accident airplane, and told ATC that the Extra was “making a beeline for the airport right now.” My engine is doing something weird. What do I do?”

Doubling your groundspeed quadruples the impact force. The safest touchdown happens at the lowest controllable airspeed, and youll be using aerodynamic devices to slow down. Then, head into the wind to reduce groundspeed and hang the airplane in the branches in a nose-high attitude. Do you know why? What should you do?
