This is preliminary information, subject to change, and may contain errors. Any errors in this report will be corrected when the final report has been completed.
On October 15, 2005, at 0947 Pacific daylight time, a Piper PA-28-140, N5FN, was destroyed due to impact with trees/terrain near Paine Field (PAE), Everett, Washington. The instrument rated private pilot and his two passengers were fatally injured. The pilot/owner was operating the airplane under Title 14 CFR Part 91. Visual meteorological conditions prevailed for the local personal flight which had two Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA), Young Eagle participants on board. The aircraft was performing a go-around at the time of the landing; event organizers said that the aircraft was scheduled to land at Paine Field to allow the two Young Eagle participants to exchange seats. After departure from Paine Field, the airplane was scheduled to return to Boeing Field (BOI); no flight plan had been filed.
Event organizers said that the airplane departed Boeing Field at approximately 0925; the Air Traffic Control controller said that the airplane was cleared to land at Paine Field at 0942. A black skid mark was found on the left side of the approach end of runway 16L (left), and another skid mark started 20 feet later, in the grass, and 10 feet to the left of the first mark. The two parallel marks veered left until both marks were in the grass. The marks in the grass proceeded parallel to the runway to the F-2 taxiway sign, which had been broken from its two supports. Several witnesses reported seeing the airplane depart on the runway heading, but at a very low altitude.
At approximately 7,000 feet from the F-2 taxiway sign, two trees (approximately 80 feet tall) had their top 20 feet (approximate) broken off. The airplane's wreckage was found approximately 175 to 225 feet southwest of these trees. The main wreckage was inverted in a 30 foot square area, and the left wing's leading edge was bent aft in accordion fashion to the mid span. The right wing was found separated from the fuselage, and located approximately 35 feet beyond it. The postimpact fire consumed the airplane.
There should be a separate page for the GOP group of the same name that gave money to a night club, and it should be mentioned that this isn't that group on this article's page. I do not know how to do this. 76.11.0.182 (talk) 10:11, 9 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
