FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: September 28, 2026

EVERETT, Wash., – At around 2:48 PM on October 1, 2026, a Glasair airplane taking off from Paine Field Airport’s main runway crashed into a wooded, undeveloped area of the airport, approximately 750 feet from the runway. The aircraft caught fire upon crashing and was quickly extinguished by Paine Field Fire Department personnel.

The aircraft had one person on board, who was pronounced dead at the scene.

The main runway was shut down for approximately one hour while the Paine Field Fire Department and airport operations crews responded to the scene. They were assisted by Mukilteo Fire Department and South County Fire Department. Support 7 responded to provide support to first responders at the scene.

Positive identification of the decedent, as well as cause and manner of death will be determined by the Snohomish County Medical Examiner's Office.

More choice, more convenience, and more flexibility for travelers is coming!
 
Alaska Airlines announced that it plans to expand service and significantly grow seats at PAE between now and the Summer of 2027.  San Jose is joining our nonstop lineup with twice-daily service beginning in April 2027, while Los Angeles and Portland are getting more flights, and San Diego and San Francisco are both getting more seats.
 
This means you have more opportunities to skip the drive down I-5, and more time to discover just how different the experience of flying through Paine Field can be. ✈️

Today we’re marking the anniversary of the very first plane landing at Paine Field, which took place 89 years ago.

Since its founding, Paine Field has helped shape the future of aviation. What started as a Works Progress Administration project has grown into a key part of Snohomish County’s economy. Today, Paine Field supports over 158,000 jobs, including more than 46,000 direct positions, and add nearly $60 billion each year to the Washington state economy. It continues to be a major driver of growth and opportunity in our region.
