Accident & incident history

1996-06-10 Accident · Woolwich, ME Damage: Destroyed Fatal injury NTSB · NYC96FA123
Reported aircraft: Beechcraft E90 — a different aircraft that carried the N916PA registration before this airframe.
Probable cause: failure of the pilot to maintain control of the airplane while climbing after takeoff, due to spatial disorientation, which resulted in an uncontrolled descent and subsequent collision with terrain. Factors relating to the accident were: the improper refueling (servicing of the aircraft) by FBO personnel, and failure of the pilot to note the excessive lateral imbalance of the airplane during preflight.
