Aircraft flight hours:

Circumstances:
N100HC and N33177 collided due to the failure of both pilots to maintain adequate visual separation. The pilot-in-command of N100HC made a poor decision by performing the simulated emergency descent on a low altitude airway. The southerly descending maneuver was performed between 5,500 and 3,500 feet, which coincided with the westerly cruising altitude of N33177. The pilot of N33177 would have been hindered to an unknown degree by the high wing design of the aircraft from perceiving N100HC as it descended at a convergence angle of about 90°. The crew of N100HC saw N33177 just prior to collision and initiated an unsuccessful rolling pull-up evasive maneuver. A portion of the right wing and the empennage of N33177 were separated during the collision resulting in its uncontrolled vertical descent. Post crash fire consumed the wreckage. Damage to N100HC led to a forced landing 7 1/2 miles from the mid air collision. Both pilots on board the Beech were unhurt.

Circumstances:
Pilot filed IFR for two flight legs; Baltimore, MD to Teterboro, NJ and Teterboro to Montgomery, NY (Orange County Airport). The pilot received a preflight weather briefing and was advised that the forecast for Stewart, NY, about 10 miles from Montgomery was sky partially obscured 4,000 feet, 500 feet scattered and 4 miles in fog. While enroute to Teterboro, at 0134 hrs, the pilot radioed Stewart airport and was advised of weather there as sky partially obscured with 4 miles in fog and haze. The aircraft landed at Teterboro at 0152 hours and departed VFR at 0200 hours. At 0211 hours the pilot radioed another aircraft and in part stated that he was at Orange County Airport and was attempting to land, however the weather was going down. At 0211 hours the pilot radioed Stewart and was advised that weather there was the same as reported at 0134 hours. The pilot acknowledged. There was no further transmission from the pilot. At 0215 hours a witness near the accident site heard a crash. He reported weather as 400 feet in fog. The aircraft crashed two miles south of runway 03. The landing gear and flaps were down. Examination of the aircraft did not disclose evidence of malfunction. Both occupants were killed.
Probable cause:
Occurrence #1: in flight encounter with weather

Circumstances:
While cruising at an altitude of 27,000 feet in good weather conditions and just passing over the city of Adavale, the twin engine aircraft went out of control and entered a dive. It descended for about 7,000 feet when excessive g loads caused both wings and the fuselage to breakup. The wreckage was found about 3,5 km south of Adavale and all 12 occupants were killed.
Probable cause:
There is insufficient evidence to determine the circumstances and factors which led to the inflight breakup of the aircraft.
