Safety record

Accident & incident history

2001-12-05 Accident · Prescott, AZ Damage: Destroyed Fatal injury NTSB · LAX02FA041
Reported aircraft: Cessna 182E — a different aircraft that carried the N3049Y registration before this airframe.
Probable cause: the pilot's failure to adequately deice the airplane prior to takeoff, which resulted in the airplane's degraded aerodynamic and climb performance capability, failure to maintain an adequate airspeed, and a stall/spin. Contributing factors were the pilot's incorrect weight and balance computations, and his use of an impairing over-the-counter medication.
