deputies said the aircraft was operated by Care Flight, a service of the Regional Emergency Medical Services Authority Health, headquartered in Reno. Stagecoach is about 40 miles east of Reno.
The plane, later identified as a PC 12 fixed-wing aircraft, was carrying five passengers, including a pilot, a flight nurse, a flight paramedic, and a patient, according to KOLO 8's Freixys Casado. There were no survivors, she said. "Care Flight, a service of REMSA Health, headquartered in Reno, Nevada and Guardian Flight, headquartered in Utah, can confirm that a PC 12 fixed-wing aircraft, tail number N273SM, went off radar Friday, Feb. 24, at approximately 9:45 p.m., near Stagecoach, Nevada," the health provider said.
Appears the plane suffered an in-flight break up. Parts of the plane were found away from main impact location. What caused that? The PC12 is a very capable airplane, but this was a a single pilot flight in very lousy, icy weather. Good discussion at
Lol
Very sad and heart wrenching 🥲
Condolences to their families.
Wonder what caused it
