Investigators Said Water Entered Fuel System Of Rockwell Commander 112 Pilots in Scotland are being warned about significant water contamination in fuel systems by the United Kingdom’s Air Accident Investigation Branch (AAIB) and the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) as a result of an investigation into a fatal crash in late 2024. The AAIB report on the incident said there was “significant water contamination” present in the four-seat single-engine plane’s fuel system. The CAA has also reviewed its safety guidance and run maintenance roadshows to advise pilots on pre-flight fuel-sampling techniques.
