Pilot error blamed in reports on 3 plane crashes
ONE:
"An Air Force lieutenant colonel died because he flew his private plane into bad weather at night and then into a fog-shrouded hillside bordering Interstate 15 in Cajon Pass, according to federal crash investigators."
TWO:
"Near Murrieta, a pilot who wasn't identified in the report was seriously injured when his home built Hein Sonex airplane lost power and nosed over during an emergency landing in a field Dec. 28, 2007."
"The loss of engine power, due to fuel exhaustion," investigators said of the probable cause. "Contributing to the accident was the lack of suitable terrain for the forced landing."
THREE:
"This year, an instructor pilot crashed a two-seat Robinson R22 helicopter because he failed to keep the rotor spinning fast enough while teaching a student to do a landing near Temecula, investigators determined."
