September 2008 Opa-Locka, Florida: Last year the 94th AeroCliams-Aviation Consulting Group (94th ACG) were the first on the scene at Opa Locka Airport (KOPF) when a Cessna 208 Caravan (N701SE) and a Beech 18 (N18R) collided on a taxiway in near prefect clear visibility. Apparently, the Cessna 208 was cleared by the tower to a certain spot on the taxiway nearest the U.S. Customs Building, as it was returning from a Caribbean destination whistle, the Beech 18 was cleared to the same location by Ground Control.Both aircraft sustain repairable structural damage. The Cessna C-208 was ultimately repair by ALCA Avionics who performed a near flawless repair scheme and repair. The Beech was repair by an unknow facility. Associate Consultant, Mr. Mike Gabriel shown above checks out the Beech right hand leading edge which sustained the brunt of the damage caused when the Cessna 208 propeller ripped into it.
