POMONA - A single-engine airplane en route to Brackett Field in La Verne crashed near the Pomona Fairplex on Friday, killing the pilot, authorities said.
The airplane, identified by Federal Aviation Administration officials as a Mooney M20M, "crashed under unknown circumstances around 2 p.m. approximately 1 mile southeast of Brackett Field, near the Pomona Fairgrounds," FAA spokesman Ian Gregor said in a written statement.
One person was pronounced dead at the scene, Los Angeles County Fire Department officials said. No other injuries were reported.
The airplane crashed into the southeast corner of the grandstands at the Fairplex's racetrack, officials added. The crash did not ignite a fire.
Friday's incident was the second fatal small plane crash near Brackett Field in recent years.
I have a picture of a Mooney M20M Bravo registered, but without confirmation it won't be posted for now
My deepest sympathy and condolences to the pilot's Family and Friends
