Accident & incident history

2020-03-07 Accident · Mack, CO Damage: Substantial NTSB · CEN20CA116
Reported aircraft: Cub Crafters CC11-160 — a different aircraft that carried the N78BK registration before this airframe.
Probable cause: The pilot's failure to reconnoiter the approach area in preparation for an off-airport landing on a sandbar, which necessitated an evasive maneuver to avoid wires and resulted in an unintentional landing in the river short of the sandbar and a subsequent nose-over.
