Safety record

Accident & incident history

2000-07-10 Accident · Nashville, TN Damage: Substantial NTSB · MIA00LA212
Reported aircraft: Cessna 560 XL — a different aircraft that carried the N868JB registration before this airframe.
Probable cause: the flight crew's failure to activate the normal brake system, and failure to follow published aircraft procedures/directives for a hard brake or no braking condition and use the emergency brake system after recognizing a normal brake system failure, which resulted the loss of control during taxi, departure from the taxiway, and collision with a building.
