NTSB Accidents

Probable cause: The pilot’s improper fuel management, resulting in a total loss of engine power due to fuel exhaustion.

Probable cause: The pilot’s misjudgment of the airplane’s speed and distance during the landing approach.

Fuel starvation for an undetermined reason, which led to the loss of power on the left engine. Additional causes were the pilot’s failure to maintain airspeed, which led to his loss of control of the airplane. The flight instructor’s inability to take remedial action because the airplane was not equipped with a full set of dual flight controls was also a factor.

The Cessna 210 pilot’s failure to maintain proper spacing during approach to landing and subsequent go-around, which resulted in a midair collision.

The pilot’s improper recovery from a bounced landing, resulting in a porpoise and a nose over.

The pilot’s failure to maintain airspeed during a go-around, resulting in an inadvertent stall and collision with the ground.

The CFI’s continued operation of the airplane with known deficiencies. The lack of suitable terrain for a landing was a factor.

The student’s failure to maintain the proper glidepath and clearance from terrain and the flight instructor’s delayed remedial action. The flight instructor’s fatigue was a factor.
