Accident & incident history

2006-06-04 Accident · Marina, CA Damage: Substantial NTSB · LAX06LA192
Reported aircraft: Cessna 180A
Probable cause: the installation of the unapproved forward seat stop by unknown maintenance personnel, which did not allow for full depth engagement of the seat lock pin, resulting in the seat slipping aft during the takeoff roll and subsequent loss of directional control. A contributing factor to the accident was the pilot's failure to secure the backup seat stop.
