KTUU news Claims....New Details Emerge on Tatitna PA-18 Plane Crash

http://www.ktuu.com/news/news/new-de...crash/25116512

FROM THE NTSB REPORT:

...." At the time of the accident, a witness standing on the west end of the airport reported good visibility, but said it was "a little windy." He said that as he watched the airplane takeoff from the 1,200 foot long gravel runway, it began a shallow climb, followed by a gradual left turn before descending into the trees just beyond the departure end of the runway.
During a telephone conversation with the NTSB IIC on September 11, 2013, a witness who arrived at the Tatitna Airport at approximately 1700 the day of the accident stated that he observed the accident airplane depart multiple times to the east with a tailwind. At the time of the accident he was inside a cabin near the airport when he heard gunfire, he walked out of the cabin and observed that the wind was still out of the east and noted that the accident airplane had departed with a tailwind.......

......An unspecified amount of meat and hunting gear was discovered amongst the incinerated wreckage, a set of caribou antlers was found between the left wing lift struts, and a rifle attached to the right wing lift struts.

Alex's Note:
While they say an unspecified amount of meat.... they (NTSB) used the weight of 500 pounds of meat to figure the W&B for their report. Anyone here ever get 500 pounds of meat from two dressed-out caribou????... Me neither.... Even if you did, it would be impossible to load that much meat into a Super Cub with two guys and their gear inside.

Was he heavy? Probably, but I question the NTSB saying he was 600 pounds overweight.

The temp was 57 degrees F, field elevation was 1450 ft and the baro was 30.02. With a dew point of 46F. So the density altitude was about 1,685 feet. The plane had a stock 150 horse according to NTSB.

Sound more like, a little overweight, a little high density altitude , a drag inducing external load and a tail wind take off.

These posts must give great comfort to skilled aircraft mechanics: pilots will always provide them ample opportunity to keep busy fixing stuff we break.

I know that several of you know Bob Snowden. Bob has owned a SC for years, of one vintage, or the other, and has been a close friend of mine since 1975. Last Wednesday, he was involved in an accident at Silver Wings Airpark, west of Fredericksburg. He was giving dual in an L-19 Birddog, and had an engine failure in the pattern. For whatever reason, he wasn't able to make the runway, and struck a cattle pin, square on one of the very hardpoint corners. He maintained consciousness, and was able to direct the EMS helicopter to their location over his cell phone. Both he, and his student are in University Hospital, in San Antonio, in ICU.

I saw that O-1 wreck mentioned and was wondering if it was him. I think O-1s are built pretty tough. Good Thing...
