Preliminary Reports

The pilot was flying a GPS approach in instrument conditions with icing present. The pilot later stated the airplane broke out of the weather about 300 feet agl and 300 feet right of the runway, with as much as ¼-inch of ice on the wings. The pilot corrected but overshot the runway, landing hard in the grass. The airplane traveled about 1000 feet before re-entering the runway. Post-accident examination revealed the right wing’s rear spar was bent.

At 1735 Eastern time, the airplane was substantially damaged during a forced landing following a partial loss of engine power while on final approach. The commercial pilot and one passenger reported no injuries. Visual conditions prevailed.

The student pilot experienced a loss of control during landing at about 1715 Eastern time. Visual conditions prevailed and the airplane sustained substantial damage. The solo student pilot was not injured. During landing practice at a different airport, the student noticed a “slight shudder…during the landing roll.” Upon touching down at the accident airport, he felt a shudder in the wheels and a pull to the left.

At about 1212 Eastern time, the airplane received minor damage during a runway overrun. The two airline transport pilots and their three passengers were uninjured. Visual conditions prevailed.According to the pilot-in-command, he flew the final approach at 120 KIAS, touching down at 106 KIAS. At touchdown, speed brakes extended but there was no wheel braking using either normal or emergency systems. The airplane then overran the runway and entered the engineered material arresting system (EMAS).

The airplane was substantially damaged when it impacted terrain at about 1644 Eastern time following loss of control during initial climb. The flight instructor and private pilot were fatally injured. Visual conditions prevailed. According to witnesses, the airplane lifted off after a ground run of approximately 400 feet. It then leveled off and accelerated. At the end of the runway, it pitched up “aggressively” to a 60-to-70-degree nose-up attitude, climbed momentarily, then yawed and rolled to the left while pitching nose down.

At 1045 Eastern time, the airplane experienced a partial loss of engine power during climbout. The solo private pilot performed a forced landing in the Kissimmee River, which resulted in substantial damage to the fuselage but no injuries. Visual conditions prevailed.

The airplane experienced a landing gear malfunction and was substantially damaged during a gear-up landing at about 1852 Eastern time. The flight instructor (CFI) and a private pilot were uninjured. Visual conditions prevailed. The CFI subsequently reported they were not getting a positive gear down-and-locked indication. In addition, the right main landing gear was only extended about halfway.

At about 0905 Mountain time, the airplane sustained substantial damage on impact with terrain following a loss of control during takeoff. Visual conditions prevailed. The solo student pilot sustained fatal injuries. The student pilot’s flight instructor (CFI) later stated that, during the student pilot’s stop-and-go landing, the airplane’s flaps were not raised. After the ensuing takeoff, the airplane was observed to pitch up as much as 60 degrees.

The airplane was substantially damaged at about 1737 Eastern time when it impacted terrain. The commercial pilot and the private pilot aboard were fatally injured. Visual conditions prevailed. The pilot and passenger were returning from an air show and were flying in formation with a Sukhoi Su-29 and an Extra EA-300.

At 1054 Central time, the airplane sustained substantial damage when it impacted terrain during a forced landing following a loss of engine power. The private pilot and passenger sustained minor injuries. Visual conditions prevailed. While in cruise flight at 2500 feet msl, the engine suddenly lost power. The pilot noticed no anomalies prior to the loss of engine power.
