A club I "know of" in the last year had a gear up in a C177RG (pilot
error), a prop strike in a Citabria on bounced landing, prop strike in an Arrow (guy ran over the taxi lights taxiing after a night landing), and a Cherokee 180 basically totalled in an off airport landing (guy ran one tank, then the other dry before looking for a place to set down). Not a one of these shows up in searches of the NTSB or FAA databases . . . I'm not sure about the first three, but I'm sure a totalled $60,000 airplane caused by running it out of gas is required to be reported. A good idea, but isn't failure to report/log such things a felony? No. It would be nice if it was. |
