Incident Overview
On 6 July 1964, a Stinson 108-2 "Voyager", registration HB-TUR, was involved in an accident at Bern-Belpmoos Airport. The aircraft, after landing, veered to the right, possibly due to crosswind influence. Subsequently, the landing gear collapsed, resulting in serious damage to the airplane.
Damage Assessment
The damage was assessed at 40 percent of the aircraft's value. The extent of the damage was consistent with a landing gear collapse following a directional deviation.
Occupant Status
All occupants of the aircraft were reported to have remained uninjured during the event.
Investigation Findings
The investigation concluded that the sequence of events began after landing, with the aircraft veering right, which led to the landing gear collapsing. The possible influence of crosswind was noted but not definitively established. No other factors were identified.
