Shortly after takeoff from Paipa-Juan José Rondón Airport, while on a flight to Medellín, the twin engine airplane, a PA-31 Panther version, went out of control and crashed in a field, bursting into flames. The airplane was totally destroyed by fire and all six occupants were killed, among them the Colombian singer Yeison Jiménez aged 34. He was performing a tour with several members of his team.

En route from Puebla to Guadalajara, the pilot encountered engine problems and was forced to attempt an emergency landing. The twin engine airplane crash landed in a pasture located near Villa Mendoza and was destroyed by a post crash fire. All five occupants escaped with various injuries.

The pilot departed Deer Lake Airport Runway 25 at 1727LT on a local solo flight. Following a circuit, the airplane made an apparent touch and go then the pilot initiated a new departure. While climbing out, the airplane entered a left turn then descended to the ground and crashed near the airport, bursting into flames. The pilot was killed.

Shortly after takeoff from Temuco-La Araucanía Airport, the pilot encountered with an unexpected situation and lost control of the airplane that crashed in an agricultural zone located south of the airport, bursting into flames. All four occupants were rescued, only the pilot suffered injuries. The airplane was destroyed by a post crash fire.

A Piper PA-31 Navajo operated by Airborne Energy Solutions Inc. was conducting a round robin instrument flight rules flight from Calgary International Airport (CYYC), AB, to Hinton/Entrance Aerodrome (CEE4), AB, and back to CYYC with only the pilot on board. The plan was to conduct the flight without refueling in CEE4. Prior to departure from CEE4, the pilot determined there was sufficient fuel for the return flight to CYYC. While in cruise, with the left engine being supplied by the left outboard tank, the pilot observed the left engine fuel pressure start to fluctuate, and the engine operation became erratic. The pilot then selected the left engine to run on the left inboard fuel tank. Concerned about the fuel quantity in the left-wing fuel tanks, the pilot elected to cross feed the left engine from the right-side fuel system. During the final approach into CYYC the right engine stopped running. The pilot secured the right engine, feathered the propeller, declared a Mayday with ATS and elected to continue the approach. Two to three minutes later, the left engine stopped operating, and the pilot proceeded to perform a forced approach onto a golf course located directly south of the approach end for Runway 35R. The aircraft came to a rest approximately 1/2 nm south of the threshold for Runway 35R. The pilot received minor injuries; however, the aircraft was substantially damaged. There was no post-accident fire. On site post-accident examination of the aircraft found the left-hand fuel selector in the outboard position, the right-hand fuel selector in the off position and the cross-feed valve in the off (normal) position. The aircraft was subsequently removed from the golf course and transported to a secure location for further investigation. The investigation found that there was no fuel remaining in the left inboard, left outboard and left nacelle fuel tanks. The right nacelle tank was empty, however approximately 24 USG were recovered from the right inboard, and approximately 29 USG were recovered from the right outboard fuel tanks.
