August 16, 2009, Hesperia, Calif., Cessna 152

0

The airplane was destroyed at about 1121 Pacific time when it descended into terrain. Visual conditions prevailed. The private pilot and passenger were killed.

A witness observed an airplane matching the make and model of the accident airplane make two high and fast approaches to land. After the second approach, the pilot initiated another go-around, which the witness described as employing a pitch attitude of about 45 degrees and left bank angle of about 60 degrees. The witness lost sight of the airplane seconds later but, a few minutes later, observed the crashed airplane next to the road on which he was driving.
