NTSB accident and incident record under N75489

LAX96LA258Accident on July 2, 1996 at Paso Robles, CA: fatal, destroyed (1 fatal).

Aircraft on the NTSB record: Davis CHALLENGER I CW · serial 119CW0594

the owner/builder/pilot's impairment of judgment and performance due to drugs which led to his improper handling of the airplane and failure to maintain an adequate airspeed margin above stall speed, resulting in an inadvertent stall/spin. A factor which contributed to the accident was the owner/builder/pilot's use of an inadequate adhesive material in the construction of the airplane which resulted in a portion of the wing root surface skin to debond, separate, and impact a propeller blade, which also separated.
