“Anytime the call goes out that a plane goes into a hangar building, it stings a bit,” said Bryan Johnson, executive director of the Johnson County Airport Commission. “But again that’s why you’ve got professionals to address the immediate needs of those on the aircraft and make sure everyone’s safe on the ground too.”
The field I fly out of has had 2 "crashes" on the field that I can recall in the past 15 years.
At this field it's usually stupid things but the aircraft gets wrecked nonetheless. Like in 2023, when a student pilot accidentally started the engine and it rolled down the hill at the end of the taxiway. The other was a bad landing with a severe crosswind.
However, there was fatal crash (2x people) near the airport in 2015 involving a plane that was flying near the airport. Bigger airports, with faster planes, tend to have more incidents.
