NTSB summary

On March 29, 2025, about 1221 central daylight time, a Socata TBM700A airplane, N721MB, was destroyed when it was involved in an accident near Brooklyn Park, Minnesota. The pilot was fatally injured. The airplane was operated as a Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 91 personal flight. According to Automatic Dependent Surveillance - Broadcast (ADS-B) data, the airplane initially departed from Naples Municipal Airport (APF), Naples, Florida, and flew to Des Moines International Airport (DSM), Des Moines, Iowa. According to the fixed base operator manager at DSM, the airplane was refueled to full fuel capacity. The airplane then departed from DSM enroute to Anoka County/Blaine Airport (ANE), Blaine, Minnesota. Preliminary air traffic control information revealed that the pilot initially contacted ANE airport control tower and reported he was inbound for the RNAV runway 9 instrument approach. The controller asked the pilot to verify that he had the current weather information and then provided a landing clearance to runway 9. The pilot repeated the landing clearance and verified that he had the current weather information. About 4 minutes later, the controller issued a low-altitude alert to the pilot, with no response. About 3 minutes later, the controller attempted to contact the pilot again with no response. According to ADS-B data, the airplane departed from DSM at 1112. About 1206, the airplane leveled its descent at 3,000 ft mean sea level (msl), about 28 nautical miles (nm) southwest of ANE. About 1220 and 6 nm from the runway threshold, inbound on the RNAV runway

    Cause

    Phase and cause come from the NTSB’s own coding of each accident, which only exists from 2008 on, so these two filters leave out 1982–2007. Cause categories are only recorded for some accidents, and early findings can change.
