Accident & incident history

1996-03-22 Accident · Duluth, MN Damage: Destroyed Fatal injury NTSB · CHI96FA116
Reported aircraft: Cirrus VK30 — a different aircraft that carried the N44VK registration before this airframe.
Probable cause: the inadequate handling/performance design capabilities of the airplane which resulted in the inability to recover from an aft center of gravity spin. Factors were the lack of any antispin or deep stall recovery devices, and the aft center of gravity.
