- Date: January 28, 1997
- Aircraft: Beechcraft 200 Super King Air
- Location: Seven Islands, Quebec, Canada
- Fatalities: 0
- Phase of flight: Takeoff and climb
- Cause: Lack of cockpit coordination when the pilot-in-command took control during takeoff. Contributing factors included marginal conditions, a contaminated runway, poor cockpit management, an ineffective briefing and inadequate rejected takeoff training.
A PropAir Super King Air 200 began its takeoff roll at Sept-Iles with the copilot at the controls. The aircraft drifted left toward the runway edge and the copilot could not correct with rudder. The pilot-in-command took over and throttled back, and the aircraft left the runway, slid on its belly over snow and came to rest facing the opposite direction. The pilot-in-command was slightly injured and the occupants left through the main door.
