On August 12, 2025, about 1330 Pacific daylight time, Cessna TR182 airplane, N619MW, was substantially damaged when it was involved in an accident near San Diego, California. The pilot and passenger were not injured. The airplane was operated as a Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 91 personal flight. The pilot reported that shortly after reaching the top of his climb he noticed that the airplane was not accelerating. He cancelled his instrument flight plan and decided to return to Montgomery-Gibbs Executive Airport (MYF), San Diego, California, where he had departed from moments earlier. During the descent, the landing gear was lowered and there was no positive gear down indication. The pilot then declared an emergency with air traffic control. He contacted the tower at MYF and performed two low-pass fly-bys at which time the tower controller noted that the nose landing gear was extended and the main landing gear was retracted. The pilot made multiple attempts to lower the landing gear without success including the use of the emergency gear extension handle. During landing, the airplane sustained substantial damage to the left horizontal stabilizer. According to the FAA, local mechanics discovered that the airplane’s hydraulic system was devoid of hydraulic fluid. In addition, they found the landing gear down position hydraulic fluid pressure hose had failed at the swedge near the fitting end. The wreckage was relocated to a secure facility for further examination.
