The NTSB blamed pilot error for the crash of NASCAR team owner Jack Roush’s Beech Premier I at EAA AirVenture two years ago, finding that Roush failed to apply full power while attempting to abort a landing on Runway 18R. As a result, Roush’s jet stalled at low altitude, crashed onto the runway and split in two.
Roush was severely hurt in the crash on July 27, 2010, and spent several weeks in the hospital. His only passenger suffered minor injuries.
