Accidents & Incidents

• On April 1, 2000, an Aerotek PITTS S-2A crashed while attempting to land on 2H0's runway 14. The aircraft impacted a golf cart applying weed killer near the airport. The gold cart driver received fatal injuries. The probable cause of the crash was the pilot's improper touchdown point and runway alignment, with contributing factors including insufficient gold cart markings and the fact that the golf cart was not equipped with a radio. Additional factors include the fact that airport personnel neglected to issue NOTAMs to notify pilots that maintenance was ongoing.[9]
