Accident & incident history

2003-04-14 Accident · Mount Pleasant, SC Damage: Destroyed Serious injury NTSB · ATL03TA078
Reported aircraft: Aero Commander 500S — a different aircraft that carried the N19WL registration before this airframe.
Probable cause: The improper refueling of the airplane by airport personnel with the incorrect fuel grade that resulted in a total loss in engine power on both engines during initial climb. A factor was the inadequate preflight inspection by the pilot in command.
