Accident & incident history

2000-05-31 Accident · Monarch, MT Damage: Destroyed Fatal injury NTSB · SEA00FA095
Reported aircraft: Cessna 414 — a different aircraft that carried the N5113G registration before this airframe.
Probable cause: The failure of the pilot-in-command to ensure adequate airspeed for flight during a forced descent due to airframe icing, resulting in a stall. Factors included: freezing rain conditions, airframe icing, an improper decision by the pilot-in-command to turn toward mountainous terrain (where a turn toward lower and level terrain was a viable option), mountainous terrain, and insufficient altitude available for stall recovery.
