Kearney, NE
On August 27, 2025, about 20:57 central daylight time, a Cessna 210D, N3806Y was destroyed when it was involved in an accident near Kearney, Nebraska. Both pilots were fatally injured. The flight was operated under the provisions of Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 91 as a personal flight. The airplane was the subject of an alert notice (ALNOT) when radar coverage was lost with the airplane, and it was reported overdue at its destination airport. The airplane was discovered in a corn field on the morning of August 28, 2025, about 5 nautical miles north of Kearney Regional Airport (EAR), Kearney, Nebraska. The airplane departed Bakko Aviation Airport (MN71), Glenwood, Minnesota about 18:45 and was enroute to Onion Crest Airpark (43NE), Riverdale, Nebraska. The flight diverted to EAR due to low ceilings and the lack of an instrument approach into 43NE. Minneapolis Air Route Traffic Control Center provided air traffic control services and cleared N3806Y for the RNAV (GPS) Runway 18 approach into EAR then switched N3806Y to EAR common traffic advisory frequency,123.0. Minneapolis ARTCC had no further communication with N3806Y. The airplane impacted an upsloping mature corn field on a heading of about 225°. Cornstalks were cut at 45° angles just prior to the initial impact site. The debris field from initial impact to where the main wreckage came to rest was 154 ft long and 23 ft at the widest point . The right wing tip was at the beginning of the debris field followed by the nose gear, right wing strut, left wing tip, a portion of the right horizontal stabilizer, left door, right door, left wing, propeller (still attached at the hub), and right landing gear. At the end of the debris field was the main wreckage with a detached right wing lying next to it. The main wreckage came to rest on a heading of about 330°. The airplane was retained for further examination.
