NTSB DEN01FA027Accident · 1 fatalField investigationFinal reportMooney M20K · Ogden, UTthe pilot's inadvertent VFR flight into IMC, which resulted in a collision with mountainous terrain. Contributing factors were the blowing snow, turbulence, dark night light conditions, and pilot fatigue due to the long flight day.NTSB DEN01FA021Accident · 2 fatalField investigationFinal reportPiper PA-24-250 · Antimony, UTthe pilot's failure to maintain aircraft control while maneuvering. Contributing factors were the pilot's failure to obtain a preflight weather briefing, his VFR flight into IMC, lack of instrument certification, spatial disorientation, low ceiling, and snow.NTSB DEN01LA016Accident · Minor injuriesLimited investigationFinal reportPiper PA-28-140 · Wendover, UTa forced landing to unsuitable terrain due to a loss of engine power as a result of carburetor icing. Factors were insufficient weather information regarding carburetor icing in the pilot's operating handbook for the aircraft and delay by the pilot in…NTSB DEN00FA149Accident · 1 fatalField investigationFinal reportCessna 172N · Kamas, UTThe pilot's improper inflight decision to enter a valley at low altitude and attempt a climb towards rising terrain. A factor was exceeding the airplane's climb performance.NTSB DEN00LA145Accident · No injuriesLimited investigationFinal reportPiper PA-22-108 · Duchesne, UTThe pilot's use of excessive braking on soft terrain. Factors included fuel starvation, the fuel selector valve not engaging properly, the pilot's incorrect positioning of the fuel selector valve, and the soft terrain on which the forced landing was made.NTSB DEN00IA133Incident · No injuriesIncident investigationFinal reportDiamond Aircraft Industries 20C-1 · Spanish Fork, UTThe company maintenance personnel's inadequate torquing procedures of the propeller attachment bolts which resulted in the fatigue failure of the propeller attachment bolts and the in-flight separation of the propeller.NTSB DEN00LA105Accident · Minor injuriesLimited investigationFinal reportFroelich Lancair IV · Bountiful, UTThe loss of power for undetermined reasons and the pilot's unsuccessful remedial action (dive to avoid the power line). Contributing factors were the power line, the tires and the fence.NTSB DEN00LA099Accident · Minor injuriesLimited investigationFinal reportCessna TR182 · Milford, UTThe failure of the turbocharger scavenging pump resulting in the total failure of the engine, and the pilot's failure to compensate for wind conditions that led him to over fly the runway during his forced landing. Factors were the pilot's diverted attention…NTSB DEN00LA090Accident · No injuriesLimited investigationFinal reportEagle DW-1 · Boulder, UTThe pilot's failure to take timely remedial action when he realized a low fuel state. Factors were fuel exhaustion and low airspeed.NTSB FTW00LA138Accident · Minor injuriesLimited investigationFinal reportNoteman RV6-A · Kanab, UTThe partial loss of engine power as result of the failure of an exhaust valve. A factor was the lack of suitable terrain for the forced landing.
