What happened
On April 8, 2019, a pilot operating a Cessna 182 P, registration SP-DTQ, was performing a repositioning flight from Białystok-Krywlany (EPBK) to the Milewo (EPMX) airfield. The aircraft landed at the Milewo airstrip at 14:50 LMT. After the landing, the pilot taxied the aircraft to its parking position. During a post-flight inspection, the pilot discovered that one of the propeller blades had been bent.
The investigation
The investigation focused on determining how the propeller blade sustained damage during the final stages of the flight operations. The inquiry examined the aircraft's movement from the landing roll to the parking area and the condition of the airfield surface.
