Multiple significant issues cited in 2018 sport plane crash that killed Fort Myers pilot<\/h3>\n

Significant health, mental, medication and flight issues likely contributed to a Jan. 22, 2018, plane crash in Bonita Springs that killed Daniel Bernath, 68, a Fort Myers pilot.<\/p>\n

Bernath\u2019s plane crashed in a wooded area outside a gated community in southeast Bonita Springs as he flew to Everglades Airport in Everglades City.<\/p>\n

The crash analysis in the final report submitted by the National Transportation Safety Board said that Bernath was flying a Van’s Aircraft RV-12 within the yellow airspeed caution range and in excess of the craft\u2019s maximum structural cruise speed. That aspect was cited as a mitigating factor in the in-flight failure of the craft\u2019s left wing shortly before the plane crashed.<\/p>\n

An autopsy of Bernath found a cocktail of three potentially impairing psychoactive medications: Citalopram, Mirtazapine and Trazadone, all antidepressants and all carrying warnings that they can impair judgment and motor skills as well as impede the mental or physical abilities required to perform potentially hazardous tasks such as driving or operating heavy equipment.<\/p>\n

Bernath had also been released from a months-long stint in a Virginia jail just days before the crash, the report said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
