When NASCAR’s Cessna 310 crashed in June 2007 following an in flight fire, it touched off a process that has yielded a Special Airworthiness Information Bulletin. The twin crashed, killing both pilots and three on the ground. The new SAIB involves the practice of taking off with “a known and unresolved discrepancy.” It is believed the NASCAR pilots were aware of a possible electrical problem but reset the circuit breaker and took off anyway.
