On July 08, 2000, about 1050 eastern daylight time, a Piper PA32-300, N7638F, registered to and operated by a private owner as a Title 14 CFR Part 91 personal flight, collided with a truck during landing roll at Staniel Cay Airport, Staniel Cay, Bahamas. Visual meteorological conditions prevailed at the time of the accident, and a visual flight rules flight plan was filed. The aircraft and the truck sustained substantial damage.
