- [NTSB ANC13CA098](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/ANC13CA098.md): Dehavilland Beaver DHC 2 · Akhiok, AK · Accident · No injuries · Data collection · Final report · Sep 14, 2013 · N1544 · Substantial damage
  > The pilot's failure to maintain directional control during takeoff in a gusty tailwind.
- [NTSB ANC13CA087](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/ANC13CA087.md): Dehavilland DHC-2 MK. I(L20A) · Bethel, AK · Accident · No injuries · Data collection · Final report · Aug 27, 2013 · N734Q · Substantial damage

  > The pilot's controlled flight into terrain. Contributing to the accident was the pilot's modified airshow maneuver, which placed the airplane at low altitude and airspeed and out of position within the performance area.
- [NTSB CEN13FA324](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/CEN13FA324.md): Weatherly 620B · Ludlow, SD · Accident · 1 fatal · Field investigation · Final report · Jun 7, 2013 · N350WR · Substantial damage
  > The pilot’s failure to maintain control of the airplane while maneuvering, which resulted in an inadvertent stall. Contributing to the accident was task- and/or work-related fatigue.
- [NTSB CEN13LA322](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/CEN13LA322.md): Grumman Acft ENG Cor-Schweizer G-164B · Covington, OK · Accident · No injuries · Limited investigation · Final report · Jun 6, 2013 · N6754Q · Substantial damage

- [NTSB ANC13FA054](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/ANC13FA054.md): Dehavilland Beaver DHC-2 MK.1 · Petersburg, AK · Accident · 1 fatal · Field investigation · Final report · Jun 4, 2013 · N616W · Substantial damage
  > The pilot’s failure to maintain adequate altitude above the trees, and his subsequent failure to maintain adequate airspeed while maneuvering to avoid the trees, which resulted in an inadvertent aerodynamic stall/spin and an uncontrolled descent.
- [NTSB ANC13CA037](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/ANC13CA037.md): Dehavilland DHC-2 MK. I(L20A) · Anchorage, AK · Accident · No injuries · Data collection · Final report · Mar 26, 2013 · N995SP · Substantial damage
