On June 25, 2026, about 1125 mountain standard time, a Beech S35, N6040F, sustained substantial damage when it was involved in an accident near Dome, Arizona. The pilot and three passengers were not injured. The airplane was operated as a Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 91 personal flight.
The pilot reported that he departed Eagle Roost Airport (27AZ), Aguila, Arizona, for a crosscountry flight to Yuma Marine Corps Air Station/Yuma International Airport (YNK), Yuma, Arizona. According to the pilot, about 15 nm northeast of YNK the engine began to run rough, so he enriched the mixture to smooth out the engine. The pilot then decided to perform a precautionary landing and landed the airplane on a dirt road with the landing gear retracted. Shortly after touchdown, the airplane veered right off the road and came to rest upright in a ditch. Subsequently, the right wing was substantially damaged.
The airplane was recovered to a secure facility for further examination.
