NTSB

Probable Cause: The pilot’s loss of directional control during landing rollout due to interference from the pilot’s foot/shoe with the airplane structure that resulted in a runway excursion and impact with terrain.

Probable Cause: The pilot’s unsafe inflight operation of the airplane and failure to maintain clearance from a person on the ground, which resulted in a serious injury.

Probable Cause: Maintenance personnel’s failure to properly torque and inspect the magneto hardware, which resulted in a partial loss of engine power.

Probable Cause: The pilot’s decision to attempt an unfamiliar takeoff technique, his failure to maintain pitch control during takeoff, and his subsequent decision to retract flaps at a low altitude, which resulted in a descent into a building.

Probable Cause: Failure of the right main landing gear due to prolonged corrosion of the landing gear tube, which weakened the gear.

Probable Cause: The partial loss of engine power due to maintenance personnel’s failure to ensure that the ignition harnesses were properly secured and the pilot’s inappropriate pitch control inputs, which resulted in the airplane exceeding its critical angle of attack and subsequently entering an aerodynamic stall.

Probable Cause: The pilot’s improper decision to attempt an intersection takeoff in a tailwind when the full runway in the opposite, headwind direction was available.

Probable Cause: The pilot’s inadequate fuel management, which resulted in fuel starvation and a forced landing.
