Analysis

According to the pilot, he checked the wind sock at the airpark and made left traffic for a landing on the turf surface of runway 25.

As the airplane touched down, it encountered a gust of wind from the left. The right-wing struck the ground, followed by the left-wing and the propeller striking the ground. The nose landing gear collapsed, and the airplane came to rest upright, on the main landing gear and the fuselage.

The airplane sustained substantial damage to the right and left-wing spars.

The pilot reported the wind was from 270 degrees at 7 knots, unknown if it was gusting.

The nearest METAR, 10 miles northwest of the airpark, reported that about the time of the accident the wind was variable at 3 knots, the ceiling was overcast at 2,100 feet and the visibility was greater than 10 statute miles.

The pilot reported that there were no preaccident mechanical malfunctions or failures with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation.

SANDY, Ore. -- A plane crash lands at a classic car show in Sandy on Sunday sending two people to the hospital. 

According to the Clackamas County Sheriff's Office, there were four passengers on the plane, including the pilot, when it crashed for unknown reasons Sunday afternoon. Two people were taken to local area hospitals with non-life threatening injuries. 

Quentin Karstetter tries to go to the classic car show every year. This year was the 60th Kiwanis Annual Fly-In Cruise-In Breakfast and he was excited to test out the new zoom on his camera.

He stopped to watch the planes fly over and he said "I saw the plane circle around so I thought it would be cool to film it landing. I noticed they came in at a weird angle and it didn't look right. The next thing you know the propeller is on the ground kicking up dirt."

The Federal Aviation Administration is handling the investigation and looking into the cause of the crash. As for Karstetter, he is just relieved no one was seriously hurt.

The plane was carrying 4 people, 2 of whom were taken to the trauma center with non-life threatening injuries.

According to Schneider, the plane was landing on a grass airstrip at the former McKinnon’s Airpark at the Sandy Kiwanis 60th Annual Fly-In Cruise-In Breakfast when a witness said the plane veered off to one side and hit its wing on the ground. The plane began to cartwheel before coming to a rest.

Schneider said the plane was traveling from St. Helens and caught crosswinds prior to the crash.
