Training

The twin engine airplane departed Perot Field Fort Worth Alliance Airport Runway 16L at 1201LT on a training flight with two pilots on board. After completing several circuits over Nocona and Bowie Airfields, the crew returned to Fort Worth. While cruising at an altitude of 1,000 feet in a left hand turn, the airplane entered an uncontrolled descent and crashed in a trailer parking located about 2,5 km north of Hicks Airfield, bursting into flames. Both occupants were killed.

The crew departed Mexico City-Felipe Ángeles Airport on a local training exercise. Few minutes after takeoff, it encountered technical problems with the hydraulic system and decided to return for a safe landing. The crew made a hard belly landing on runway 04R then the airplane slid for few dozen metres before coming to rest. The tail bent upon impact.

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.

Based in Jeju, the airplane was dispatched at Pohang Airport to perform a local training flight consisting with touch-and-go manoeuvre. It took off at 1343LT with a crew of four on board. About six minutes into the flight, it entered an uncontrolled descent and crashed in a wooded area, bursting into flames. All four crew members were killed.

The crew was completing a training program and departed Rasht-Sardar Jangal Airport on a flight to Tehran. While flying in limited visibility, the airplane went out of control and crashed in an open field located in Kenarsar, some 15 km east of Rasht Airport. The airplane disintegrated on impact and all three occupants were killed.

The crew (one pilot and one copilot) were completing a local training flight out from Beaune-Challenges Airport. In unknown circumstances, the airplane crash landed in a vineyard located in Magny-lès-Villers, about 10 km north of the airfield, bursting into flames. Both occupants evacuated the cabin and were seriously injured. The airplane was destroyed by fire.

The crew departed Toronto-Lester Bowles Pearson Airport in the morning to perform training at Lake Simcoe Regional Airport under flight number TOR804. After performing several approaches and touch-and-go, the crew was completing an approach to runway 28 when the airplane belly landed. It slid for few dozen metres before coming to a halt, bursting into flames. All three crew members evacuated safely but the airplane was totally destroyed by fire.

The crew was completing a local training flight at Kayseri-Erkilet Airport on behalf of the 12 Wing. While flying in the vicinity of the airport, he encountered technical problems and elected to return for an emergency landing. The crew performed a very low approach over the surrounding districts before landing on runway 25. After touchdown, the airplane apparently encountered issues with the left main gear, slid for few hundred metres then veered off runway to the left and came to rest in a grassy area. All crew members escaped uninjured.

The check pilot of the multi engine airplane reported that he was conducting a familiarization flight with a pilot that his company was in the process of hiring (pilot applicant.) On final approach, at approximately 100 ft above ground level, the pilot applicant made a pitch adjustment and the airplane’s nose pitched down excessively. Both pilots pulled back on the yokes to arrest the descent, but the airplane impacted terrain short of the runway, which resulted in substantial damage to the right wing and fuselage. The check pilot reported that there were no preaccident mechanical malfunctions or failures with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation.

The newly hired pilot and an experienced flight instructor were conducting the third flight of the pilot’s initial training. After conducting an instrument approach in visual meteorological conditions, they conducted a missed approach and the airplane proceeded to a holding pattern at 3,000 ft, consistent with a normal training profile. As the airplane was completing the first turn in the holding pattern, it pitched over and accelerated. The airplane impacted wooded terrain in a nose-down attitude in excess of 20°, a slight right bank, and at an airspeed exceeding 250 knots. No distress calls were heard from the crew, who were not communicating with air traffic control at the time and were not required to. The airplane disintegrated on impact and both crew members were killed.
