NTSB Releases Prelim From Hawaii Skydiving Airplane Accident

Five Fatally Injured When The Cessna 182H Went down

The NTSB has released its preliminary report from an accident which occurred May 23 in Hawaii that resulted in the fatal injury of a pilot and four skydivers.

According to the report, at about 0922 Hawaiian standard time, a Cessna 182H, N2007X, was destroyed when it impacted terrain shortly after departure from Port Allen (PAK), Hanapepe, Hawaii. The pilot and four passengers were fatally injured. The airplane was registered to, and operated by, D & J Air Adventures, Inc., as a 14 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 91 flight as a part of the skydiving flight operation. Visual meteorological conditions prevailed for the flight, and no flight plan filed. The local flight originated from PAK at about 0921.

Multiple witnesses reported that shortly after takeoff, about 150 feet above ground level, the airplane made a sudden right turn, descended, and impacted terrain. A post crash fire ensued.

After the on-site documentation, the wreckage was recovered to a secured facility for further examination.
