Accident & incident history

1997-01-05 Accident · Bullhead City, AZ Damage: Destroyed Minor injury NTSB · LAX97FA082
Reported aircraft: Fairchild SA227-AC — a different aircraft that carried the N165SW registration before this airframe.
Probable cause: failure of the pilot(s) to use 'override' ignition as prescribed by checklist procedures during an encounter with icing conditions, which subsequently led to ice ingestion and dual engine flame-outs. Factors related to the accident were: the adverse weather (icing) conditions, the accumulation of airframe/engine ice, and lack of suitable terrain in the emergency landing area.
1987-01-10 Accident · Yuma, AZ Damage: Substantial NTSB · LAX87LA086
Reported aircraft: Swearingen SA227-AC — a different aircraft that carried the N165SW registration before this airframe.
