(RIP and prayers with the other injured)
One occupant was pronounced dead on scene, police said, while the other was flown to a hospital with serious injuries. Speaking on scene, Beverly Police Chief John LeLacheur said the second victim was in critical condition before transport.

The names and ages of the pilot and passenger have not been released at this time.

Leah Read, senior air safety investigator with the NTSB, said the plane, which was headed for New York, was only in the air for about a minute.

“The pilot just said he had some sort of problem with his engine and wanted to return. So it all happened very quickly," she told NBC10 Boston.

Someone at the airport saw smoke underneath the aircraft near the landing gear shortly after takeoff.

“It was described to me as puff of not black smoke but dark smoke coming from the area maybe behind the engine near the landing gear.”

She believes the pilot was Massachusetts-based and that he was familiar with this airport. The recovered plane was a fixed-wing single engine aircraft with four seats. It will be taken to a secure location in western Massachusetts, where the investigation into the aircraft will continue.

According to police, there have been no reports of any ground injuries or additional property damage in the area at this time.
One person has died and another person was critically injured in a small plane crash in Beverly, Massachusetts, on Thursday morning.

The crash occurred around 8:45 a.m. on Sam Fonzo Drive, just outside the Beverly Regional Airport, with two people onboard, according to the Beverly Fire and Police departments.

Responding crews found a single-engine piston aircraft with significant damage that appeared to be resting against a utility pole. There were two men trapped inside.

A private plane crash-landed at the Paso Robles Municipal Airport on Friday morning.

A small, six-seat airplane carrying two people failed to lower its landing gear during its descent, Paso Robles Fire and Emergency Services Battalion Chief Brian Lewis said.

As a result, the single-engine plane landed on its belly and slid down the runway until coming to a stop, he said.  The plane was a Cessna T210 and had flown from Paso Robles to San Luis Obispo County Regional Airport earlier that morning, before encountering the problem on its return flight.

The incident did not result in injuries, but the airplane was significantly damaged, Lewis said.

Update: The Tri-Cities Airport confirmed that only the pilot was onboard the aircraft. He was evaluated at the scene.

BLOUNTVILLE, Tenn. (WJHL) — A small plane crash-landed at Tri-Cities Airport (TRI) on Saturday morning after its landing gear reportedly failed upon touchdown, according to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).

A statement from the FAA said, “The landing gear of a Beechcraft V35 collapsed when the plane landed at Tri-Cities Airport in Tennessee around 11:30 a.m. local time on Saturday.”  TRI emergency responders and maintenance crews worked quickly and efficiently to safely secure the scene, remove the aircraft, and return the runway to service with minimal disruption.

6/14/25 ~22:12Z - The opening to the parade/flyovers coordinated on DCA Final 124.7.  News/Media helicopter was orbiting around north end of DCA getting updates for positioning and separation from Tower 119.1.  Not been able to find comms for subsequent multiple helicopter flyovers out of Andrews (Apaches, Chinooks, Blackhawks etc) they may have been on UHF.

Callsigns:
  • GKA264 - Golden Knights drop plane from Davison seems to accelerate drop timeline, proceeds directly to P56-A @ 3k ft to drop, returning South along the river to Davison
  • Warbird-1 and -2 each a flight of 3 from Dulles, returned to the North to Dulles with coordination from Potomac to maintain separation as separate flights
  • NAM-1 a flight of ~8 helicopters from Vietnam era out of Manassas holding on Potomac to the N of Dulles, proceeded along Route 1/4 for the flyover, returning South along the river to Manassas around the weather
  • N203HA Media/News chopper orbiting North of DCA
  • DRAGO-2 - assumed to be US Army flyover ground controller located near flyover target
  • DRAGO-3 - assumed to be US Army flyover controller located in Potomac TRACON

Combination DCA Final 124.7 and TWR 119.1 from 22:12 - 22:47Z, edited for time/content, not realtime.
