NTSB

Probable cause: The pilot’s inadequate preflight and in-flight fuel management, which resulted in an intermittent loss of engine power due to fuel starvation.

Probable cause: The pilot’s selection of an unsuitable taxiway, which resulted in the wings striking hidden fence posts.  

Probable cause: The pilot’s failure to maintain yaw control and the exceedance of the airplane’s critical angle of attack in the traffic pattern, which resulted in an aerodynamic stall/spin.

Probable cause: The pilot’s excessive rudder and brake applications during landing, which caused the airplane to nose over.

Probable cause: The pilot’s failure to attain adequate airspeed during the short field takeoff, which resulted in an exceedance of the airplane’s critical angle of attack and an aerodynamic stall.

Probable cause: An in-flight collision with a bird.

Probable cause: The pilot’s failure to see and avoid power wires.

Probable cause: The in-flight separation of a portion of the propeller, which subsequently penetrated the right rudder, as a result of the failure of the bond line between two of the propeller’s wood layers. Contributing to the failure of the propeller was the manufacturer’s use of an inappropriate bonding agent.
