KALISPELL — The Kalispell City Airport was the scene of a plane crash and fire that took place on Monday, August 11 . Crews and Red Eagle Aviation have been working to clean up the wreckage.

“This was a home-built Swearingen, one of a kind; they've had it for 23 years, flown it for over 300 hours. This was their baby,” Kalispell City Airport Manager John Paul Noyes told MTN.

The Swearingen is one of several planes ruined in Monday's fiery crash.

“Obviously, the owner's aircraft is gone, you have this one that is gone, and then we had three other aircrafts that have significant damage, and now we are learning about a fourth that has maybe some cosmetic damage too," Noyes told MTN.
