Recent Beech 95-C55 accidents
The flight crew’s failure to adequately manage the available fuel onboard the airplane, which resulted in a total loss of power due to fuel starvation.
The pilot’s inadequate preflight inspection, and inadequate inflight fuel management, which resulted in a total loss of engine power due to fuel starvation and subsequent forced landing.
The pilot’s failure to attain a proper touchdown point during landing with a tailwind which resulted in a runway over run. Contributing to the accident was a wet runway.
The pilot's unintentional retraction of the landing gear during the landing roll.
The pilot's continued visual flight rules flight into instrument meteorological conditions and mountain obscuration that resulted in controlled flight into trees and terrain.
The failure of the landing gear to extend during landing approach due to the interference between the landing gear motor's sector and worm gears.
The pilot's failure to maintain control of the airplane during an aborted takeoff in gusting wind conditions.
The pilot's inadvertent landing on a taxiway after a reported loss of engine power in both engines, which resulted in an overrun of the paved surface. The reason for the loss of engine power could not be determined because a postaccident test run of the engines did not reveal any anomalies that would have precluded normal operation.
