NTSB Accidents

The pilot’s inadequate in-flight planning and decision making which led to VFR flight into IMC and loss of aircraft control.

The pilot’s failure to maintain clearance from high terrain while maneuvering.

The pilot’s inadequate in-flight planning and decision making, which resulted in fuel exhaustion.

The pilot’s failure to maintain adequate airspeed while maneuvering at low altitude, which resulted in a stall and subsequent uncontrolled descent and collision with the water.

The pilot’s inadequate in-flight planning/decision making, resulting in the loss of engine power due to fuel exhaustion.

The pilot’s failure to fly the published instrument approach, which resulted in a collision with mountainous terrain. Factors were the air traffic controllers’ failure to provide known information that may have assisted the pilot in determining whether to continue with the approach or take alternate action.

The decision to perform a negative G maneuver, which resulted in a loss of engine power due to fuel starvation.

The pilot’s inadequate in-flight planning/decision and selection of the wrong runway and inadequate compensation for the gusting tail wind conditions, which resulted in a stall/mush and subsequent crash.

The pilot’s failure to verify security of the left engine cowling and its subsequent separation in-flight and collision with the vertical stabilizer, resulting in the loss of aircraft control.
