Accident & incident history

1996-10-01 Accident · Cedar City, UT Damage: Substantial NTSB · SEA96LA221
Reported aircraft: Cessna 172M
Probable cause: the pilot's failure to attain proper airspeed during takeoff, which resulted in a premature lift-off and an encounter with the terrain during the aborted landing. Excessive extension of the wing flaps was a related factor.
