Accidents and incidents

 * On July 1, 2000, a Schleicher K 8B operated by the University of Michigan Gliding and Soaring Club crashed while landing at Rossettie Airport. While on final approach the glider experienced higher than expected sink and the glider impacted a fence-post short of the runway. The probable cause of the accident was found to be the downdraft experienced during final approach and altitude/clearance from the fence post not being maintained by the pilot.
 * On August 1, 2008, a Prendergast RV-7A's landing gear bended during landing at Rossettie Airport. The pilot reported that during landing he let the "nose come down and used brakes which caused the low clearance gear leg to dig in and begin bending." The airplane's propeller and wing subsequently contacted the "undulating" grass strip. The pilot reported no mechanical malfunctions with the airplane during the accident flight. The probable cause was found to be the pilot's inadequate flare during landing.
 * On May 26, 2019, a powered parachute crashed near the airport. The pilot aboard received injuries.
