This article says it is a different company..

http://www.winnipegfreepress.com/breaki ... 89174.html

John Fondse, manager of Missinippi Airways, confirmed the aircraft belonged to the company.
"Missinippi Airways will co-operate fully with the Transportation Safety Board inspectors as they determine the cause of the accident," Fondse said in a prepared statement.

Beaver Air Serice does business as Missinippi Airways and according to a TSB spokesman on the radio, the airplane was a C208B manufactured in 2005.
According to T.C. register info this would be C-FMCB.

Narrative: Winnipeg ACC reported that an ELT was reported by Winnipeg FIC to RCC at approximately 2115z. It was determined to be C-FMCB, a 208 Grand Caravan, operated by Beaver Air Services. The aircraft crashed on departure of runway 33 at Pukatawagan. ARFF responded.

Heard a rumour today. Hope there is NO truth to it. It happened on the third takeoff attempt? Flaps? I'm not saying this was the case, but, if an airplane fails to take off, a reason MUST be found before another attempt is made. In the 'van, it's either the weight, or the flaps not being set for takeoff?

Which picture? The one in this thread? I couldn't tell a thing from that? Certainly not flap position? Looks like a Barbecue.

All I am basing that on is the picture in this thread. It *appears* like there is a gap just forward of the trailing edge of what is left of the right wing, which would be consistent with the flaps being down.

Transport Canada suspends Missinippi Airways' Air Operator Certificate

WINNIPEG, July 16, 2011 /CNW/ - Transport Canada has suspended Missinippi Airways' Air Operator Certificate, effective July 15, 2011 at 11:59 p.m. CDT. Without an Air Operator Certificate, a company cannot provide commercial air services in Canada.

This action is based on safety concerns identified during Transport Canada's inspection following the accident in Pukatawagan on July 4, 2011.

Transport Canada has taken this action in the interest of public safety. Transport Canada consulted with Missinippi Airways throughout the period leading up to the suspension. This suspension does not rule out further regulatory action.

Transport Canada will continue to work with Missinippi Airways. The company must demonstrate that it meets all applicable safety regulations before Transport Canada will reissue its Air Operator Certificate.

Very sad indeed, there have been a lot of accidents with the Cessna 208 since they come on stream

:shock: WOW! That's a harsh step to take. Something must really be 'up' there to get their OC pulled, when other Manitoba companies in pretty much the same boat did not, in the past, lose their OC's..
