Steve Colwell NTSB Identification: LAX01LA281 Accident occurred Friday, August 17, 2001 at Placerville, CA Aircraft:JOHNSON LANCAIR 360, registration: N417DJ Injuries: 2 Fatal. This is preliminary information, subject to change, and may contain errors. Any errors in this report will be corrected when the final report has been completed. On August 17, 2001, at 1140 hours Pacific daylight time, an experimental Johnson Lancair 360, N417DJ, impacted terrain in the front yard of a residence in Placerville, California. The airline transport certificated pilot and one passenger were fatally injured, and the amateur-built aircraft was destroyed. The personal flight was operated by the owner/pilot under 14 CFR Part 91, and departed from Sacramento International airport about 1125. Visual meteorological conditions prevailed and no flight plan was filed. According to a deputy from the El Dorado County Sheriff's Department, the accident site was about 1,500 feet from the pilot's residence. The pilot had flown to Sacramento to pickup his daughter, who arrived from Alaska, and who was the passenger aboard in the accident. He was believed to have been flying over his home to alert his wife prior to landing at the nearby Placerville airport. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> LML website: http://www.olsusa.com/mkaye/maillist.html LML Builders' Bookstore: http://www.buildersbooks.com/lancair Please send your photos and drawings to marvkaye@olsusa.com. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
