A preliminary report has been released about a plane crash earlier this month in Lyon Township that killed a family of three.
The single-engine Piper PA-24 piloted by 60-year-old David Compo crashed January 2nd into a home on Dakota Drive in the Orchards of Lyon subdivision â about a half mile from New Hudson Airport. Compo, his 55-year-old wife Michele and their 18-year-old son Dawson were all killed on impact. The flight originated in Canton, Georgia, where the family had been visiting with family for the holidays. Five occupants of the home were able to escape.
Experienced pilot and Oakland County businessman David Compo did not obtain an official weather briefing or file a flight plan for the final, fatal personal flight he, his wife and their son took Jan. 2.
A preliminary report released last week by the National Transportation Safety Board highlighted some oddities prior to Compo’s small plane crashing into a Lyon Township home, killing the Compo family and inflaming the other family’s residence.
Aviation experts tend to recommend the use of weather briefings and flight plans, according to Internet research.
The NTSB report details the last hour of the Compo family’s in-flight travels from Canton, Georgia.
