Cessna 210 Accident Mt ISA
|
I don’t want to put the rego here in case i’m wrong, but flightaware shows a C210 that’s been operating out of Mount Isa over the past week. Based on the registered operator, probably doing mag survey. |
There is actually two of them there, both 210s I think, doing survey work, I was chatting to them a few days ago... very sad. One I think was SUX but I can't remember what the other was... Fly safe. |
Confirmed in media VH-SUX.
Sadly 2 POB and 2 fatalities. |
Early rumour say it may have shed a wing... :sad:

In-Flight wing seperation seems to be pretty much confirmed. 12,000hrs but that's not a heck of a lot for a C210! RIP and condolences to all those affected. |
Well done ATSB.

Hmmmm Wing seperation Im surprised nobody has mentioned SIDs was the Inspection done and by whom ? |
Would the installation of wing tip fuel tanks had an impact ?

That does not mean Supplementary Inspection Documents are not applicable to modified aircraft - just the ones produced by Cessna are not applicable. I assume an IO-550 with a Black Mac, tip tanks and a stinger would be some of the modifications incorporated. |

i remember years ago some of the ex-Airnorth ones had somewhere close to 20k. Wonder if IDZ is still flying? |
Is this not something serious enough that all 210’s should be grounded till they find out if this was from a unique failure to this aircraft? Plenty of 210’s out there with at least that many hours and it would have had sids it’s doing commercial operations. |

Many hours in many 210’s. What was the last model built the R? 1986 (yes to lazy to Google...). Fact is any 210 flying is a minimum of 25 years old and more realistically 30-40+++. Just like many others... wing separation no matter what type is scary... as a pilot unless your in a Cirrus you are FARKED! |
