Farm owner: Plane “used wrong runway”

The owner of the farm where Flight 5191 crashed said the plane “obviously … used the wrong runway."
Nick Bentley said the plane must have used the airport's shorter runway, which is about 3,400 feet. The main runway is 7,000 feet
He said the plane hit an 8-foot fence between his property and the airport, and clipped several trees.
The smaller runway is for use by small aircraft, not commercial planes.
Bentley said he did not go the crash site, but he can see the fence from other locations on his land.
“He just got disoriented for whatever reason,” Bentley said of the pilot.
He said the crash location is a “straight line” from the start of the smaller runway to where the airplane landed on his farm. He said a friend called him at 6:20 a.m. and told him a plane had crashed on his property.
Bentley and his wife said no structures or horses on the farm were hit. He said the farm had some horses on it but was otherwise undeveloped.
