information released
Chelan County Sheriff Mike Morrison reports, on 7/30/25, at 5:30 p.m., a small plane crashed into a residence in the 300 block of Tigner Rd in Cashmere. The residence is located in line with the airport in Cashmere, WA.

A Monday morning crash-landing of a small plane at the Southwest Georgia Regional Airport that left the pilot uninjured caused little disruption to operations.
Police said three people were onboard when the plane crashed into the woods.
Enhancement of safety and efficiency are what is on the table between Boeing and Embraer who have signed an agreement to work toward safety, efficiency of aircraft operations and productivity in manufacturing. The passenger benefits that will trickle down will be in the areas of research and technological development in narrow body jets.
They have already made progress in “drop-in” biofuels along with Airbus and the Sao Paulo State Research Foundation on long-term aviation biofuels research.
Although the head of Zimbabwe’s Civil Aviation Authority David Chawota confirmed with the BBC: “I can confirm that a 767 plane coming from London has had an accident at Harare airport,” the whole thing was a drill with paid actors.
BBC’s Brian Hungwa reported seeing a large plume of smoke and helicopters over the runway.
Apparently no one but a chosen few were informed it was a drill. Apparently seeing what the media would do was part of the Zimbabwe’s Civil Aviation Authority’s “exercise.”
Maybe I’m out of line here, but it seems to me a drill is supposed to test responses in-house.
The fire drill at a school, for example, involves firemen arriving and evaluating the response time of those endangered.
But if someone at the school sets off an alarm to see what would happen, or calls 911…they’re criminally liable. Okay, well maybe they were testing emergency services which for the CAA might be considered in house.
But testing the media? Allowing the news to go out to the media that there was a disaster? As someone who deals with people suffering horrible loss from disasters that are real, this sounds more like a cruel joke than a drill. I wonder what the IATA and ICAO will have to say about this. At the very least, it is unethical.
Chawota said “This was a usual drill for the period. We do this once every three years. This was for the benefit of our police personnel, security, aviation, medics, hospital — everyone was involved. This exercise helps the general preparedness of our facilities here.”
