Safety record

Accident & incident history

2015-07-23 Accident · Fort Lauderdale, FL Damage: Substantial NTSB · ERA15LA289
Reported aircraft: Piper PA-28R-180
Probable cause: The undetected fatigue cracks in the engine and nose landing gear (NLG) strut mount assembly, which prevented the proper alignment of the NLG after it was extended and the pilots from being able to maintain directional control after touchdown.
2004-08-17 Accident · Eliot, ME Damage: Substantial NTSB · IAD04CA038
Reported aircraft: Piper PA-28R-180
Probable cause: The pilot's failure to maintain airspeed above stall which resulted in a hard landing and collapse of the landing gear. Also causal was the flight instructor's inadequate supervision.
