- Aircraft: Rockwell Grand Commander 690

A Rockwell Grand Commander being ferried from Norman to Fort Lauderdale entered a right spiral during climb near Konawa, Oklahoma, on 25 June 1992. The rapid descent exceeded the airframe's design stress limits and the empennage separated in flight. The pilot, the sole occupant, was killed. Toxicology found a high level of an antihistamine.
