NTSB accident and incident record under N2442

WPR23FA286Accident on July 28, 2023 at Glendive, MT: fatal, destroyed (1 fatal).

Aircraft on the NTSB record: Risen 915 iS · serial 26

The pilot’s failure to maintain airspeed, which resulted in an exceedance of the airplane’s critical angle of attack and an aerodynamic stall/spin.

ERA11LA427Accident on July 29, 2011 at Sarasota, FL: fatal, substantial damage (1 fatal).

Aircraft on the NTSB record: Tl Ultralight Sro STING S3 · serial TLUSA174

The inability of the pilot-in-command (PIC) to recover from an inadvertent spin following a stall demonstration for reasons that could not be determined because aircraft and engine examinations did not reveal any anomalies that would have precluded recovery from the spin. Contributing to the severity of the accident were the PIC’s failure to remove the airframe parachute system safety pin before takeoff, the exceedance of the left-seat weight limitation, and the location of the parachute system activation handle behind the PIC’s seat, which prevented easy access during the uncontrolled descent.
