Narrative:According to the flight instructor and student pilot, while maneuvering to land at Pueblo Memorial Airport, (PUB/KPUB), Colorado, the accident airplane encountered wake turbulence from a preceding C-130 airplane. The accident airplane then began an uncommanded pitch, roll, and descent that could not be arrested prior to an impact with terrain in Pueblo, Colodarod. A review of radar data revealed that the flight path of the accident airplane was in an area favorable for a wake vortex encounter. No anomalies were reported by the flight instructor and student pilot or noted during the postaccident examination of the airframe and engine.
Probable Cause: The student pilot's inability to maintain aircraft control due to an encounter with wake turbulence from a preceding larger aircraft. Contributing to the accident was the instructor pilot's failure to intervene.
N939DA was canx. 09jun11 by theFAA.
