NTSB

Probable cause: The student pilot’s improper decision to taxi past another airplane occupying the taxiway and her subsequent failure to maintain clearance from the airplane.

Probable cause: The pilot’s failure to maintain airspeed and the airplane’s exceedance of its critical angle of attack, which resulted in an aerodynamic stall and spin at a low altitude.

Probable cause: The pilot’s inadequate preflight inspection, which resulted in fuel exhaustion and the subsequent total loss of power in both engines.

Probable cause: The pilot’s failure to maintain airspeed during a sharp turn at low altitude, which resulted in an aerodynamic stall.

Probable cause: The pilot’s improper glidepath during a landing at night, which resulted in a collision with approach lights.

Probable cause: The non-instrument-rated pilot’s improper decision to conduct a flight in which instrument meteorological conditions existed along the route of flight, which resulted in spatial disorientation and a loss of airplane control.

Probable cause: The pilot’s improper preflight fuel planning and in-flight fuel management, which resulted in fuel exhaustion and the subsequent total loss of engine power.

Probable cause: The pilot’s mismanagement of the available fuel, which resulted in a total loss of engine power due to fuel starvation.

Probable cause: The student pilot’s improper pitch application, which resulted in a hard landing and subsequent fire. Contributing to the accident was the student’s failure to give over the flight controls to the flight instructor when instructed to do so.
