[5 None] [April 26 2021] [ERA21LA193] TEXTRON AVIATION INC 208B, Laceyville/ PA

On April 26, 2021, at 0845 eastern daylight time, a Cessna 208B, N143CAC, was substantially damaged when it was involved in an accident near Laceyville, Pennsylvania. The pilot, safety pilot and three passengers were uninjured. The airplane was operated as a Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 91 corporate flight. The operator stated the purpose of the flight was to transport three company employees to Williamson-Sodus Airport, (SDC), Williamson, New York, for a meeting. The flight departed Pennridge Airport (CZK), Perkasie, Pennsylvania, about 0730 after picking up the last of the passengers for the 200 nm flight to SDC. The pilot stated that he wanted to make the flight pleasurable, so he asked during the flight if the passengers wished to fly lower for a better view. When one passenger replied in the affirmative, the pilot descended the airplane to below cloud level as the airplane approached the Susquehanna River, near Laceyville, Pennsylvania. He was planning a touch and go landing manuever on the water, and was scouting for a suitable place suitable place for the maneuver. A passenger stated that the airplane was flying very low over the water and seemed to be turning and banking to follow the bends in the river (figure 1). Figure 1 Accident Location and overhead view of the river During this maneuvering, the airplane impacted an unmarked transmission line that was perpendicular to the shore and crossed the river. The pilot stated that he felt the airplane "shake and flutter" during the impact, and immediately climbed up to about 3,000 ft msl to assess the situation. The safety pilot went to the cabin and noted damage to the right inboard aileron and right outboard flap. According to both pilots, following the wire strike, the airplane felt "sluggish;" however, the engine was operating normally and there were no cockpit cautions or warnings. The decision was made to return to ISP, 175 nm away, where the runway was long and wide and emergency services were available. The airplane landed without further incident; no emergency was declared. Preliminary Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B ) data showed the flight approach the Susquehanna River on a heading of about 334Β° and then make some turns before ADS-B coverage was temporarily lost. After the impact, data showed the flight proceeded on a heading of about 345Β° for about 35 nm before initiating a right turn towards ISP.

Anyone here work/intern at Textron? Namely Textron Aviation or Bell Helicopter?

I'm targeting them for an internship this summer, and given the opportunity, potentially working for them after college. I'm currently a first semester senior with internships at Rockwell Collins and Gulfstream under my belt, and while I've enjoyed working at both places, I would really like to get my foot in the door at Textron for a number of reasons.

So I'm interested in learning a little bit about the company culture of Textron, and anyone's personal experience there, as well as any tips for applying to internships at Textron. I've applied to numerous internships there in the past and even interviewed a couple times on campus, but have yet to receive an offer.

That being said, I would love to hear what someone did or emphasized on their application that they felt helped get them an interview. I've only received interviews at career fairs and never via an online application

Info on Textron Aviation in Wichita, KS

Hello, I currently live in Corpus Christi, TX and by next month I will be graduating from college with an Associates in Applied Science, Aviation Maintenance. One of my college instructors just had a tour at the Textron Aviation facility in Wichita and he informed me of job openings there at Textron and that so many other aviation companies in the area are hiring as well. Is there anyone that works there that can give me some insight into how to get into working at Textron? Or if other companies are looking for entry level workers? I've applied at Textron but I'm worried that since I have very little experience in the aviation field, besides college, that they'll look past my resume and maybe look for someone who isn't out of state like me or already has their A&P license. I'm seriously looking, sorta desperate to be honest because I fear being jobless after graduation. I'm 26, I've lived in quite a few places so I'm not at all scared of moving myself and my very little belongings (lol) out there. Corpus Christi lacks opportunity in my field of study, so I'm really not looking to stay here. Help a sister a out!

[ Non-Fatal ] [ 08/15/2019 ] Textron Aviation Inc 680A, Elizabethton/ TN

On August 15, 2019, about 1537 eastern daylight time, a Textron Aviation Inc. 680A, N8JR, was destroyed during a runway excursion after landing at Elizabethton Municipal Airport (0A9), Elizabethton, Tennessee. The airline transport-rated pilot and copilot were not injured. The three passengers sustained minor injuries. The airplane was registered to JRM Air LLC and operated under the provisions of Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 91 as a business flight. Day, visual meteorological conditions prevailed, and no flight plan was filed for the flight. The flight originated at Statesville Regional Airport (SVH), Statesville, North Carolina at 1519 and was destined for 0A9.

According to the flight crew, the flight departed SVH under visual flight rules and climbed to 12,500 ft. No air traffic control services were requested. The preflight, departure, and en route portions of the flight were routine. Approaching 0A9, the crew announced their intentions to land on runway 24 via the airport's common traffic advisory frequency.

Airport surveillance video captured the initial touchdown, which occurred near the runway touchdown zone, and portions of the accident sequence. The airplane bounced twice, then continued airborne down runway 24 until it touched down a third time with about 1,000 ft of paved surface remaining. The video revealed that the right main landing gear collapsed and the outboard section of the right wing contacted the runway shortly after the third touchdown. The airplane departed the paved surface beyond the runway 24 departure end threshold, through an open area of grass, down an embankment, through a chain-link fence, and up an embankment, coming to rest on the edge of Tennessee Highway 91.

The pilots' account of the landing was generally consistent with the video. The pilots also reported that, following the second bounce, a go-around was attempted; however, the airplane did not respond as expected, so they landed straight-ahead on the runway and could not stop the airplane prior to the excursion. After the airplane came to a stop, the flight crew secured the engines and assisted the passengers with the evacuation. The main entry door was utilized to exit the airplane. A postaccident fire was in progress during the evacuation.

The airplane came to rest upright, on a true heading of 285. The fuselage aft of the main entry door, the right wing, and the empennage were consumed by the postaccident fire. The left main and nose landing gear

[2 Fatal] [May 29 2021] [WPR21FA211] TEXTRON AVIATION INC 172S, Eden/ UT

On May 29, 2021, about 1000 mountain daylight time, a Cessna 172S airplane, N1727T, was destroyed when it was involved in an accident near Eden, Utah. The flight instructor and student pilot were fatally injured. The airplane was operated as a Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 91 instructional flight. According to the airplane operator, ATP Flight School, this was an introductory training flight designed to assess the student's skill level. Preliminary Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) data showed that the instructor and student pilot departed the flight school's local base at Ogden- Hinckley Airport (OGD), Ogden, Utah about 0941 and immediately turned to an easterly heading. The ADS-B data ceased 5 nm east of the departure airport at 0946, and was subsequently picked up by radar 9 nm east of OGD at 0949. The airplane flew south of Pineview Reservoir and then turned northwest while maintaining an altitude of about 2,000 ft above ground level (agl). At 0955 the airplane turned to the northeast into a canyon where it began a climb over rising terrain. In the next 60 seconds, the airplane descended to about 1,000 ft agl (or about 7,550 mean sea level (msl)), and below ridgelines on either side of its flight path. The track data ceased at 0956:40. Figure 1: Flight Track of Accident Airplane The airplane was located in mountainous terrain at an elevation of about 8,000 ft msl. All major sections of the airplane were accounted for at the accident site. The debris field was small and comprised of mostly windshield fragments. The first point of impact was marked by a tree located 30 feet west of the main wreckage, which came to rest on a northerly heading and was consumed by postimpact fire. The wreckage was retained for further examination.
