SportStar Down - Newark IL

Post by designrs »

Allegedly the plane clipped power lines… September 12, 2014

Obstacles: 24 ft Power Line 100 ft from runway
PLINE MARKED WITH ORANGE BALLS.
APCH RATIO 20:1 AT DSPLCD THR.

Photo and incident are somewhat unique in that the damage is mostly to the tail and rear fuselage with less damage to the forward sections… even the prop and nosegear are there.
