Aviat Husky Veers Off Runway at Arlington Municipal Airport

The FAA opened an investigation to determine the cause with a formal report expected to follow.

Overview

  • The single-engine 2024 Aviat Husky A-1C-200 left the runway after landing and came to rest off the runway with visible wing and landing gear damage, according to aerial video.
  • Two people were aboard the plane and there were no reported injuries to the pilot or passenger.
  • The incident occurred at about 10:35 a.m. on Monday and was confirmed by the Federal Aviation Administration.
  • FAA records show the airplane is registered to an owner in Helena, Montana and the agency is leading the investigation into the cause.
  • Texas Sky Ranger aerial footage showed the port wing tipped to the ground and what appears to be a partial landing gear collapse, and the FAA will issue a formal report that may clarify what happened and whether airport operations or pilot factors played a role.
