NTSB Accidents

The complete loss of engine power during an attempted go-around from a simulated engine-out landing.

The continued flight into instrument meteorological conditions, which resulted in spatial disorientaton and loss of control.

The pilot’s loss of consciousness while on final approach to land, resulting in an uncontrolled descent, and a hard landing on the runway.

Fuel starvation as result of the pilot’s failure to properly position the fuel selector.

The pilot’s failure to maintain directional control of the airplane and his inadequate compensation for the crosswind.

The pilot’s failure to achieve a proper touchdown point and delayed decision to abort the landing.

The pilot’s failure to lower the landing gear. The pilot’s attention being diverted, and his failure to use the checklist were factors.

Water contamination of the fuel system that was not caught during the preflight inspection.

The failure of the left wing’s lift strut, which resulted in the separation of the wing, and the subsequent airplane control not being possible.
