Aircraft Accident/Incident Report
Cambridge, Idaho 83610
Thursday, November 16, 2000 14:00 MST
NTSB Narrative Summary Released at Completion of Accident
During an aerial survey flight around mountainous terrain, the aircraft was reported overdue and missing. The wreckage was located about six months later in a valley surrounded by high terrain. Ground disturbances and impact signatures documented at the accident site indicate that the aircraft collided with the terrain in a nose down attitude. Impact damage and a post-crash fire destroyed the aircraft. Post-crash inspection of the wreckage and engine did not reveal evidence of a mechanical failure or malfunction.
NTSB Probable Cause Narrative
Airspeed not maintained and an inadvertent stall while maneuvering. Mountainous terrain was a factor.
