## Latest cases

- [NTSB CEN16LA098](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/CEN16LA098.md): Cessna 441 · Fargo, ND · Accident · No injuries · Limited investigation · Final report · Jan 8, 2016 · N779CC · Substantial damage
  > The pilot’s failure to cycle the surface deice boots during the instrument approach in icing conditions, which led to ice accumulation on the leading edges of the wings and empennage, and resulted in an aerodynamic stall and subsequent hard landing.
- [NTSB CEN15FA136](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/CEN15FA136.md): Cessna 441 · Argyle, TX · Accident · 1 fatal · Field investigation · Final report · Feb 5, 2015 · N441TG · Substantial damage
  > The pilot's failure to maintain adequate airspeed during the instrument approach in night instrument meteorological conditions, which resulted in the airplane exceeding its critical angle of attack and an aerodynamic stall/spin at a low altitude.
- [NTSB ERA12FA120](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/ERA12FA120.md): Cessna 441 · Nashville, PA · Accident · 1 fatal · Field investigation · Final report · Dec 22, 2011 · N48BS · Substantial damage
