Beechcraft E18

Prior to flight the spark plugs on both engines were replaced due to minor engine vibration and the landing gear retract system wiring repaired due to the gear not retracting electrically on a prior occasion. After takeoff the gear would not retract electrically and the passenger had to crank up the gear manually. After the parachute jump the pilot shut down the left engine to isolate the vibration. He then started the left engine and feathered the right engine. Unable to unfeather the right engine he elected to land with full flaps and gear down after a straight-in approach. As he approached the threshold a Cessna 150 taxied onto the runway. The pilot executed a go-around while trying to retract the flaps and gear electrically without results. The passenger was attempting to retract the gear manually when the aircraft struck a tree. The pilot stated he did not make his landing intentions known on unicom during the approach. No pre-impact discrepancies were found to preclude normal prop operation. Normal elect power is halved with one generation inoperative.

The aircraft departed Hilo on the last leg of a three flight. A few minutes after takeoff, the pilot called the tower to ask for return and indicated he had a difficulty. No further transmission was made. Witnesses heard intermittent engine sputtering and then the whine of a high speed dive. The aircraft impacted in a sugar cane field at a steep angle. Both pilots were killed.

The aircraft crashed during takeoff from a clearing on a ranch and then was abandoned. The aircraft landing gear struck a concrete trough for watering cattle. Drugs were found on board the aircraft.

En route from Barstow to Lake City, the pilot informed ATC about the failure of the right engine and was cleared to divert to Gainesville Airport. On final, in a limited visibility due to fog, the twin engine airplane collided with electronic towers and crashed in a field, bursting into flames. All three occupants were killed.

During the takeoff roll from a contaminated runway, the pilot completed the rotation prematurely. Unable to lift off, the twin engine airplane continued, overran and collided with brushes. All five occupants escaped with minor injuries while the aircraft was damaged beyond repair.

During the takeoff roll, the twin engine airplane went out of control, veered off runway and eventually collided with few others parked aircraft on the apron, bursting into flames. Both occupants were seriously injured and the aircraft was destroyed. The following aircraft were substantially damaged in the ground accident: a Grumman G-21 Goose registered N33S, a Cessna 206 registered N9423G and a Beechcraft registered N9473D.

At liftoff, the right engine failed. The airplane banked right, causing the right main gear to struck the ground and to be torn off. The aircraft crash landed and came to rest. All 11 occupants escaped uninjured while the aircraft was written off.

Following a night takeoff from Orlando-Herndon Airport, while climbing in adverse weather conditions, the pilot lost control of the airplane that crashed. All four occupants were killed.

Shortly after a night takeoff from Windsor Locks-Bradley Airport, while on a cargo flight to Baltimore, the twin engine airplane stalled and crashed in flames. The aircraft was destroyed and the pilot, sole on board, was killed.

The pilot, apparently sole on board, was engaged in an illegal flight and attempted to land at night on a unsuitable terrain (runway closed). After landing, the twin engine airplane ground looped, struck a dirt bank and came to rest in flames. The pilot was not found and the aircraft was destroyed.
