Preliminary information
On July 21, 2025, about 0745 central daylight time, a Cessna T210N, N93HP, was substantially damaged when it was involved in an accident near Crosby, Texas. The pilot and passenger were not injured. The airplane operated as a Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 91 personal flight.
The airplane departed from the George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH), Houston, Texas, at 0734 for the Dunham Field Airport (1XS1), Crosby, Texas. The pilot reported that after departure, the airplane began losing fuel. Shortly after, the engine began to lose power, and the No. 5 cylinder showed low exhaust gas and cylinder head temperatures. The pilot then elected to perform an off-field landing.
During the off-field landing, the airplane impacted a water retention pond. A postimpact fire ensured consuming portions of the engine cowling and fuselage. The pilot and passenger were able to egress without injuries.
The airplane was retained for further examination.
