Safety record

Accident & incident history

2012-03-15 Accident · San Juan, PR Damage: Destroyed Fatal injury NTSB · DCA12FA051
Reported aircraft: Convair 440 - NO Series — a different aircraft that carried the N153JR registration before this airframe.
Probable cause: the flight crew's failure to maintain adequate airspeed after shutting down the right engine due to an in-flight fire in one of the right augmentors. The failure to maintain airspeed resulted in either an aerodynamic stall or a loss of directional control.
