Safety record

Accident & incident history

2001-11-21 Accident · Eagleville, CA Damage: Destroyed Fatal injury NTSB · LAX02FA031
Reported aircraft: Aero Commander 500S — a different aircraft that carried the N900RA registration before this airframe.
Probable cause: the pilot's encounter with forecast mountain wave conditions, moderate or greater turbulence, and icing, with downdrafts that likely exceeded the climb capability of the airplane, which was encountered at an altitude that precluded recovery. Also causal in the accident was the failure of the pilot to obtain an adequate preflight weather briefing which would have included a series of Airmets that were in effect at the time.
