On February 3, 2014, about 2300 central standard time, N61YP, a Cessna 525, multi-engine turbofan airplane, was substantially damaged after striking an obstruction during approach at Elk City Regional Business Airport (ELK), Elk City, Oklahoma. The pilot and 6 passengers were not injured. The airplane was registered to Yankee Papa, LLC, and operated by Brink Constructors, Inc., both in Rapid City, South Dakota. Night instrument meteorological conditions (IMC) prevailed at the time of the accident and an instrument flight rules flight plan had been filed for the 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 91 business flight.
