Texas State Senator Involved In Taxiway Excursion

Drove His Bonanza Onto A Service Road At Dallas Love Field

Texas State Senator Kel Seliger (R-Amarillo) was involved in a taxiway excursion at Dallas Love Field Monday when he mistakenly steered his Beechcraft Bonanza A36 onto a service road rather than the taxiway leading to the runway.

The Associated Press reports that, according to Love Field spokesman Jose Torres, Seliger was alone in the airplane and was preparing to depart for Amarillo when the accident occurred.

Seliger was taxiing near a private aviation company northeast of the commercial terminal when the pulled onto the service road rather than the taxiway. The left wing of his Bonanza caught a chain-link fence, and it pulled the airplane around until the propeller hit the fence as well.

Selinger was reportedly not injured in the incident ... other than maybe his pride. The amount of damage to the airplane was not reported.
