Accidents and incidents
On November 5, 2001, a Robinson R22 BETA impacted the ground while landing at Toledo Suburban. The pilot reported the aircraft started a translating tendency to the right while hovering, and while the pilot tried to correct, the aircraft turned 180 degrees, and the tail rotor struck the ground before the right skid dug in. The helicopter went into a dynamic rollover on its right side. The probable cause was found to be the pilot's improper flare during landing.[9]
On June 26, 2020, a Beechcraft 35 crashed at Toledo Suburban Airport. The aircraft performed a gear-up landing, and the pilot was not injured.[10][11]
