# NTSB investigations, LA: Aerodynamic stall/spin

NTSB aviation accident and incident investigations since 1962: the probable cause, findings, aircraft, crew, weather and docket of each, linked to the FAA registry and the FAA’s own reports.

## Latest cases

- [NTSB CEN23LA331](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/CEN23LA331.md): David Brown/U Balldin/T Morgan Zenith Stol CH701 · Arnaudville, LA · Accident · Minor injuries · Class 4 · Limited · Final report · Jun 25, 2023 · N1836E · Substantial damage
  > The pilot’s failure to maintain airspeed resulting in exceeding the airplane’s critical angle of attack and an aerodynamic stall. The low altitude at which the flight was conducted contributed to the outcome.
- [NTSB CEN21LA399](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/CEN21LA399.md): Costruzioni Aeronautiche Tecna P92 Echo Classic · Cotton Port, LA · Accident · Serious injuries · Class 4 · Limited · Final report · Sep 2, 2021 · N303TA · Substantial damage
  > The pilot exceeding the airplane’s critical angle of attack, resulting in an aerodynamic stall and subsequent loss of control during go-around after a bounced landing.
- [NTSB CEN18LA257](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/CEN18LA257.md): Piper PA46 · Springhill, LA · Accident · No injuries · Class 3 · Limited · Final report · Jul 3, 2018 · N689KC · Substantial damage
  > The pilot’s exceedance of the airplane's critical angle of attack during an improper go-around procedure which resulted in an aerodynamic stall.
- [NTSB GAA18CA335](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/GAA18CA335.md): Beech A36 · Gilliam, LA · Accident · No injuries · Data collection · Final report · Jun 6, 2018 · N710JT · Substantial damage
  > The pilot’s exceedance of the airplane’s critical angle of attack during a soft-field takeoff, which resulted in an aerodynamic stall.
- [NTSB CEN13FA326](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/CEN13FA326.md): Hawker Beechcraft B200GT · Baker, LA · Accident · 1 fatal · Field investigation · Final report · Jun 7, 2013 · N510LD · Destroyed
  > The pilot’s failure to maintain adequate airspeed during departure, which resulted in an aerodynamic stall and subsequent impact with terrain. Contributing to the accident was the pilot’s lack of specific knowledge of the airplane’s avionics.
- [NTSB CEN12CA119](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/CEN12CA119.md): Quicksilver MXL II · Loreauville, LA · Accident · Serious injuries · Data collection · Final report · Dec 18, 2011 · N61202 · Substantial damage
  > The student pilot did not maintain adequate airspeed while maneuvering at low altitude, which resulted in an aerodynamic stall.
- [NTSB CEN12CA030](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/CEN12CA030.md): Cessna 172N · Covington, LA · Accident · No injuries · Data collection · Final report · Oct 17, 2011 · N2401E · Substantial damage
  > The pilot’s failure to maintain adequate airspeed during a banner drop, resulting in an aerodynamic stall.
- [NTSB CEN11LA396](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/CEN11LA396.md): Grumman G164 · Oak Ridge, LA · Accident · Minor injuries · Limited investigation · Final report · May 27, 2011 · N2LU · Substantial damage
  > The flight instructor's failure to maintain adequate airspeed, which resulted in an aerodynamic stall and subsequent impact with trees.
- [NTSB CEN09CA272](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/CEN09CA272.md): Cessna A185F · Patterson, LA · Accident · Minor injuries · Data collection · Final report · Apr 29, 2009 · N4603E · Substantial damage
  > The pilot's failure to maintain adequate airspeed in a turn while attempting to return to land, which resulted in an aerodynamic stall. Contributing to the accident was the reported loss of engine power for undetermined reasons.
