- [NTSB SEA93FA151](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/SEA93FA151.md): Piper PA-12 · Laramie, WY · Accident · 1 fatal · Field investigation · Final report · Jul 8, 1993 · N3108M · Substantial damage
  > Poor inflight planning and an inadvertent stall.
- [NTSB CHI93MA143](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/CHI93MA143.md): Beech C99 · Shelton, NE · Accident · 2 fatal · Major investigation · Final report · Apr 29, 1993 · N115GP · Destroyed
  > The deliberate disregard for the federal aviation regulations, gp express procedures, and prudent concern for safety by the two pilots in their decision to execute an aerobatic maneuver during a scheduled check ride flight, and the failure of gp express…
- [NTSB ATL93LA076](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/ATL93LA076.md): Cessna 180 · Jonesboro, GA · Accident · No injuries · Limited investigation · Final report · Apr 17, 1993 · N2738K · Substantial damage
  > The pilot's abrupt and excessive swerve to avoid a deer on the runway. A factor was the strong crosswind that precluded the pilot's directional control recovery.
- [NTSB LAX93LA171](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/LAX93LA171.md): Mong SPORT-S · Fallbrook, CA · Accident · Minor injuries · Limited investigation · Final report · Apr 10, 1993 · N36JD · Substantial damage
  > Failure of the pilot to visually clear the runway before starting the takeoff ground run. Factors in the accident were inadequate airspeed at the time of liftoff which resulted in an aerodynamic stall.
- [NTSB FTW93FA108](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/FTW93FA108.md): Champion 7ECA · Dublin, TX · Accident · 2 fatal · Field investigation · Final report · Mar 22, 1993 · N11052 · Destroyed
  > The pilot's attempted maneuver which led to his entry into an inadvertent stall
- [NTSB FTW93FA100](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/FTW93FA100.md): Boeing 727-200 · Houston, TX · Accident · Serious injuries · Field investigation · Final report · Mar 9, 1993 · N79754 · No damage
  > The failure of the pilot of the T-38A to follow flight advisories. A factor which contributed to the accident was the development of a letter of agreement between the FAA and NASA which was not in accordance with ICAO procedures.
