Factual Information

On December 26, 2022, at 1645 mountain standard time, a Cessna 210N, N210CU, was substantially damaged when it was involved in an accident at Morgan County Airport (42U), Morgan, Utah. The pilot was not injured. The airplane was operated as a Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 91 personal flight. The pilot of the airplane reported that, after conducting an uneventful flight to Spanish Fork, Utah, he then flew to 42U. During the landing roll, on runway 21, as he applied the brakes, the left brake went “soft.” The pilot noted that the left brake was at the floor and made multiple attempts to pump the brake. The airplane continued to veer off the runway and impacted a fence. Additionally, the pilot stated that there was a recurring issue with the left brake and had maintenance performed to correct the malfunction. Since that time, he has flown more than 10 hours with over 25 takeoffs and landings without issue. Postaccident examination of the airplane revealed that the empennage, right elevator, and horizontal stabilizers sustained substantial damage. The wreckage was recovered for further examination.
