On June 29, 1995, about 2035 hours Pacific daylight time, a Cessna 210L, N300EW, collided with ground obstructions during a forced landing 3 miles southeast of Truckee, California. The forced landing was precipitated by a loss of engine power while the aircraft was descending towards the Truckee airport. The aircraft was operated by Fallon Aeromotive of Fallon, Nevada, and was on a positioning flight following a non-scheduled passenger flight under 14 CFR 135 of the Federal Aviation Regulations. Visual meteorological conditions prevailed and no flight plan was filed. The aircraft incurred substantial damage and the certificated commercial pilot, the sole occupant, sustained minor injuries. The flight originated at Fallon on the morning of the accident and flew a revenue passenger to Santa Rosa, California. The pilot then flew this positioning segment to Truckee, with a stop at Crescent City. The operator reported the accident on July 3, 1995, following assessment of the aircraft damage. The operator said that when the aircraft was examined during recovery at the accident site only residual fuel was found in the aircraft fuel tanks. The fuel tanks and fuel system lines were intact.
