NTSB Accidents

Probable cause: The pilot’s failure to detect water in the fuel system during the preflight inspection, which resulted in a loss of engine power during departure and a subsequent impact with terrain.

Probable cause: A deer collided with aircraft during landing at night.

Probable cause: The pilot’s inadequate inflight fuel management and his failure to switch to a fuel tank with adequate fuel, which resulted in fuel starvation.

Probable cause: The flight instructor’s failure to maintain directional control during the landing roll and lateral control during the go-around in gusting crosswind conditions. Contributing to the accident was the lack of communication between the flight instructor

Probable cause: The pilot’s distraction due to her malfunctioning iPad, which led to her inadvertent forward cyclic application.

Probable cause: The pilot’s failure to maintain directional control during takeoff. Contributing to the accident was the pilot’s failure to properly check that the flight controls were correctly configured before takeoff.

Probable cause: The pilot-receiving-instruction’s failure to maintain directional control during takeoff.

Probable cause: The pilot’s failure to extend the landing gear due to his distraction by talking on the radio, which resulted in a gear-up landing.

Probable cause: The pilot’s selection of unsuitable terrain for landing, which resulted in a dynamic rollover.
