Safety record

Accident & incident history

2017-07-08 Accident · Point Mugu, CA Fatal injury NTSB · WPR17FA146
Reported aircraft: Chicco Miguel E Quicksilver Sport II
Probable cause: A partial loss of engine power for reasons that could not be determined during postaccident examination in combination with the low cruise altitude selected by the pilots, which resulted in an ocean ditching. The lack of personal flotation devices likely contributed to the drowning of one of the pilots.
2013-06-29 Accident · Newbury Park, CA Damage: Substantial Serious injury NTSB · WPR13LA318
Reported aircraft: Chicco Quicksilver Sport II
Probable cause: The partial loss of engine power while maneuvering due to the blockage of the exhaust system by broken internal engine baffles that had shifted during the flight, which resulted in a forced landing and subsequent impact with terrain.
