## Latest cases

- [NTSB CEN25LA387](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/CEN25LA387.md): Piper PA-32R-301 · Oxford, MS · Accident · Serious injuries · Class 4 · Limited · Final report · Sep 18, 2025 · N318JM · Substantial damage
  > The pilot’s exceedance of the airplane’s critical angle of attack during the initial takeoff climb, which resulted in an aerodynamic stall and impact with terrain.
- [NTSB CEN24LA246](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/CEN24LA246.md): Air Tractor AT-402 · Helm, MS · Accident · No injuries · Class 4 · Limited · Final report · Jun 30, 2024 · N9185K · Substantial damage
  > The pilot’s failure to maintain control, which resulted in an aerodynamic stall and impact with terrain.
- [NTSB WPR23FA208](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/WPR23FA208.md): Piper PA-31-325 · Tupelo, MS · Accident · 2 fatal · Class 3 · Field · Final report · Jun 3, 2023 · N4077W · Destroyed
  > The pilot's exceedance of the airplane's critical angle of attack while maneuvering after takeoff for reasons that could not be determined, which resulted in an aerodynamic stall and subsequent loss of control.
- [NTSB CEN21FA209](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/CEN21FA209.md): Mitsubishi MU2B · Hattiesburg, MS · Accident · 4 fatal · Class 3 · Field · Final report · May 5, 2021 · N322TA · Destroyed
  > The pilot’s failure to maintain control of the airplane during the night instrument approach which resulted in an inadvertent aerodynamic stall from which the pilot was unable to recover.
- [NTSB CEN20CA106](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/CEN20CA106.md): Kitfox 57 Super Sport · Kosciusko, MS · Accident · No injuries · Data collection · Final report · Feb 28, 2020 · N92MH · Substantial damage
  > The pilot's lifting off with the airplane at a high of angle of attack, which resulted in aerodynamic stall.
- [NTSB CEN19FA138](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/CEN19FA138.md): Champion 7GCAA · Schlater, MS · Accident · 1 fatal · Class 2 · Field · Final report · May 7, 2019 · N7665S · Substantial damage
  > The pilot's failure to maintain the proper airspeed during the initial climb after takeoff, which resulted in an exceedance of the airplane's critical angle of attack and a stall.
- [NTSB ERA14LA332](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/ERA14LA332.md): Aeronca 7CCM · Prentiss, MS · Accident · Minor injuries · Limited investigation · Final report · Jul 5, 2014 · N82442 · Substantial damage
  > A total loss of engine power for reasons that could not be determined because postaccident engine examination revealed no mechanical malfunctions or failures that would have precluded normal operation.
- [NTSB ERA14FA322](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/ERA14FA322.md): Air Tractor AT-602 · Clarksdale, MS · Accident · 1 fatal · Field investigation · Final report · Jul 1, 2014 · N91331 · Destroyed
  > The pilot's failure to maintain adequate airspeed during a low-level, high angle-of-bank turn, which resulted in an exceedance of the critical angle of attack and a subsequent accelerated stall.
- [NTSB ERA13CA392](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/ERA13CA392.md): Cessna 172L · McComb, MS · Accident · Minor injuries · Data collection · Final report · Aug 30, 2013 · N7892G · Substantial damage
  > The pilot’s failure to maintain adequate airspeed during approach to landing, which resulted in an aerodynamic stall and subsequent loss of control.
- [NTSB ERA10LA385](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/ERA10LA385.md): Air Tractor AT-602 · Canton, MS · Accident · 1 fatal · Limited investigation · Final report · Jul 29, 2010 · N9046D · Substantial damage
  > The pilot's failure to maintain adequate airspeed, which resulted in an aerodynamic stall and spin.
- [NTSB ERA10LA059](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/ERA10LA059.md): Cessna A188B · Ripley, MS · Accident · No injuries · Limited investigation · Final report · Nov 8, 2009 · N9368G · Substantial damage
  > The pilot’s failure to maintain adequate airspeed on final approach, which resulted in an aerodynamic stall. Contributing to the accident was a partial loss of engine power due to water in the fuel.
- [NTSB ERA09LA431](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/ERA09LA431.md): Air Tractor AT502 · Minter City, MS · Accident · Serious injuries · Limited investigation · Final report · Jul 31, 2009 · N60237 · Substantial damage
  > The pilot’s failure to maintain airspeed while maneuvering at a low altitude, resulting in an aerodynamic stall.
- [NTSB ERA09CA543](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/ERA09CA543.md): Piper J3C-65 · Rosedale, MS · Accident · No injuries · Data collection · Final report · Jun 28, 2008 · N42156 · Substantial damage
  > The failure of the pilots to maintain airspeed following a reported partial loss of engine power.
