On June 7, 2026, at 1008 local time, a Piper PA-44-180T Turbo Seminole, N8390K, registered to Wingsleasing LLC, and being operated by Glidepath Aviation, sustained substantial damage when it was involved in an accident at St. George Regional Airport (SGU/KSGU), St. George, Utah. The pilot and two passengers were not injured. The flight originated from the Bolinder Field Tooele Valley Airport (TVY/KTVY), Tooele, Utah, at 0821, and was destined to KSGU.
Preliminary ADS-B data shows that the was at 3,700 ft when it entered a left traffic pattern for runway 1. The airplane entered a tight left hand turn for runway 1, but the groundspeed increased from 94 knots to 106 knots, consistent with the pilot aborting the approach/landing. The airplane proceeded to fly over the airport at 3,400 ft, and towards the end of the track it entered a tight left hand turn for runway 19. The airplane decelerated to about 64 knots and came short of the runway threshold (next to the run-up area, see figures).
KSGU sits at an elevation of 2883.6 ft. The airport features a single asphalt grooved runway 1/19 which is 9300 x 150 ft.
At 0956, the winds were from 190 at 15 knots, gusting 23 knots, temperature 31°C, dewpoint -6°C, and an altimeter setting of 29.74 inches of mercury. The calculated density altitude was 5642 ft.
