Safety record

Accident & incident history

2004-01-03 Accident · Window Rock, AZ Damage: Substantial NTSB · LAX04LA087
Reported aircraft: Cessna 421C — a different aircraft that carried the N911EA registration before this airframe.
Probable cause: the pilot's failure to maintain adequate airspeed in the landing flare to compensate for airframe icing, which resulted in a premature stall and hard landing. The degraded aircraft performance due to airframe ice was a contributing factor.
