Investigation start date : 18-09-2004 Publish date report : 18-09-2004

When the PA-34 passed behind a Boeing 737 it was struck by ‘jet blast’ from the Boeing 737. As a consequence the right-hand wingtip and the right-hand propeller of the PA-34 touched the ground which caused substantial damage to the PA-34.
