Structures expressing a sequential situation

1. I boarded a plane and it clashed on Rocky Mountain.
2. I boarded a plane that clashed on Rocky Mountain. (no , which)
3. I boarded a plane clashing on Rocky Mountain.

I'd like to know I can use not nonrestrictive clause but restrictive clause or participle phrase as in #2/ #3 when the situation is sequential as in #1.
Thank you in advance for your help.

"crashing".

This pattern is sometimes used; for example, "I boarded a train, arriving in London two hours later". However, the style seems too matter-of-fact to describe a plane crash, so your example reads strangely.
