In this episode of the Aviation News Talk podcast, Max discusses the crash of N629AG, a Piper PA-46-350P Malibu Mirage, which occurred on a visual approach to Anderson, Indiana (KAID) on a Friday morning. The aircraft, arriving too high and fast, attempted a go-around but stalled shortly after, killing the pilot and three passengers. The flight had departed from Fort Dodge, Iowa (KFOD) under IFR, leveling off at FL210 before beginning its descent. The pilot likely lost situational awareness, as the aircraft descended too slowly to correct for the high altitude and fast speed on final approach. Despite having tools like the Garmin G1000, which could have alerted the pilot to the impending danger, the descent planning was inadequate. The episode emphasizes the importance of proper descent planning and the use of avionics tools to prevent accidents, especially in situations where an aircraft is too high and fast for a safe landing. Max also highlights the potential distractions in the cockpit that could lead to a failure in maintaining critical airspeed during such a high-pressure situation.
