Murphy Rebel Crash BC

Post by pelmet »

C-FTWO, a privately registered amateur built Murphy Rebel departed Squamish Municipal Airport
(CYSE), BC, on a recreational flight under visual flight rules to Courtenay Airpark (CAH3), BC, with
the pilot and 1 passenger on board. At approximately 1721 PDT the aircraft struck terrain 13 NM
south southwest of CYSE. The pilot and passenger were fatally injured. The aircraft ELT activated,
along with an automatic cellphone emergency notification system. The aircraft was destroyed.
There was a post-crash fire, with minimal damage to the environment.
The TSB deployed to the site and is investigating the occurrence.


From TSB regarding an accident in May.
