Probable cause: The airport’s failure to issue a NOTAM regarding the deployment of the traffic monitoring camera system before the accident, which resulted in the airplane striking the camera system during a short-field approach and landing.

Probable cause: The pilot’s failure to ensure that sufficient fuel was available for the flight, which resulted in a total loss of engine power due to fuel exhaustion.

Probable cause: The pilot’s failure to attain a proper glidepath on approach for landing, which resulted in impact with trees. Contributing to the accident was a partial, temporary loss of engine power for reasons that could not be determined bec

Probable cause: The pilot’s failure to ensure that adequate fuel was onboard for the flight, which resulted in fuel exhaustion and the loss of engine power.

Probable cause: An in-flight collision with multiple birds.

Probable cause: The pilot’s failure to maintain directional control during a simulated left engine failure during takeoff. Also causal to the accident was the flight instructor’s delayed remedial action to maintain directional control and re

Probable cause: The pilot’s failure to see and avoid the airplane stopped ahead of him during taxi.

Probable cause: The pilot’s inadequate preflight weather planning and in-flight weather evaluation, which resulted in an encounter with a strong cold front and the pilot’s subsequent loss of airplane control.
