This report discusses the March 15, 2012, accident involving a Convair CV-440-38, N153JR, operated by Fresh Air, Inc., which crashed into a lagoon about 1 mile east of the departure end of runway 10 at Luis Muñoz Marín International Airport, San Juan, Puerto Rico. The two pilots died, and the airplane was destroyed by impact forces. Safety issues include inadequate Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) oversight of 14 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 125 operations, inadequate evaluation of Fresh Air’s compliance with FAA-approved procedures, and evaluation of 14 CFR Part 125 pilots using another operator’s operations specifications. Safety recommendations are addressed to the FAA. |
