Accident & incident history

1996-07-12 Accident · Lascassas, TN Damage: Destroyed Serious injury NTSB · MIA96LA182
Reported aircraft: Tocholke 1300-Z Max — a different aircraft that carried the N398MT registration before this airframe.
Probable cause: failure of the pilot to maintain adequate airspeed, while maneuvering (turning) after takeoff, which resulted in an inadvertent stall at too low of an altitude to allow recovery.
