On May 13, 2014, about 1650 universal coordinated time, a Cessna 210N, Brazilian registration PT-WHT, was substantially damaged while landing at Sinop Airport (SWSI), Sinop, Mato Grosso, Brazil. The pilot and three passengers were not injured. The flight originated from Claudia, Mato Grosso, Brazil. According to information released by the Aeronautical Accident Prevention and Investigation Center (CENIPA) of Brazil, the nosegear actuator failed during landing, which resulted in the propeller and lower fuselage contacting the runway.
