Read the full NTSB narrative

On March 21, 2026, about 1023 mountain daylight time, a Cessna 150G airplane, N6305S, was substantially damaged when it was involved in an accident near Ellicott, Colorado. The pilot sustained serious injuries. The airplane was operated as a Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 91 personal flight. The pilot reported that he recalled completing a preflight inspection, a before takeoff engine run-up, and taxing onto the runway for takeoff. He did not recall any portion of the accident sequence. A witness stated that the pilot intended to conduct some takeoffs and landings for currency. The pilot departed toward the south, and the takeoff appeared normal. The airplane went out of sight behind a hangar. However, when he regained sight of it, the airplane was on an easterly heading and in an approximate 60° left bank. The airplane subsequently impacted the ground near wings level. It came to rest on a northeast heading about 100 ft before the departure end of the runway and about 500 ft left of the centerline. The airplane sustained damage to the fuselage, empennage, and both wings. Airframe and engine examinations are planned. Figure 1 – Airplane at accident site (Police department photo)
