Re: Light-Sport Aircraft Yahoo group Top 10 causes of GA accidents -

Hello Something seems to be missing  If accidents refer to the NTSB unplanned landings in which a report is lodged you missed fuel both run out and unavailable ( fuel in tank but not usable due to design attitude or selection) and mechanical failures (both engine and airframe) There is also a significant number of escalation of the outcome where the initial issue mainly fuel or engine out is badly managed  Peter --- On Thu, 11/4/10, apollonorthamerica <apollonorthamerica@yahoo.com> wrote: From: apollonorthamerica <apollonorthamerica@yahoo.com> Subject: Light-Sport Aircraft Yahoo group Top 10 causes of GA accidents - To: Sport_Aircraft@yahoogroups.com Date: Thursday, November 4, 2010, 1:46 AM   Top 10 causes of GA accidents seem to be no different than top 10 causes for trike accidents but perhaps the order of these would be different. 1. Maneuvering – loss of control in flight 2. Initial Climb – loss of control in flight 3. Maneuvering, low altitude flying – aerodynamic stalls, spins 4. Maneuvering, low altitude flying – low altitude operation/event 5. Enroute-cruise – controlled flight into terrain (CFIT) 6. Initial climb – aerodynamic stall, spin 7. Enroute – VFR encounter with IMC 8. Enroute-cruise – loss of control in flight 9. Maneuvering, low altitude flying – loss of control in flight 10. Maneuvering, low altitude flying – collision with terrain/object (non-CFIT) Abid http://www.tampabayaerosport.com
