Private Jet Goes Off Runway And Crashes Into House, Luckily Without Hurting Anyone

While rolling across the grass, the pilot was likely not on an iPad and may have tried to turn right to avoid the house, or at least prevent a direct impact. The nose of the aircraft is intact, which is probably why the pilot escaped without injury. It looks like the left wing hit the house instead, with the shock causing bricks on the side and back corner of the house to fall off. We don’t have a good view of the point of impact or what happened to the left wing. We also don’t see any evidence of a fire after the crash, which is excellent news for all involved.

According to FAA records, the airplane is a 2013 Cessna 525C, a twin-engine business jet. It is registered to Stonecrest Capital, LLC, of South Fulton, Tennessee. The plane is not currently available for public tracking through FlightAware, which makes sense considering the ongoing crash investigation, so we don’t know how it came to be at Mayfield-Graves County Airport.
