- Date: April 30, 2002
- Aircraft: Cessna 411
- Location: Lee's Summit, Missouri, United States
- Fatalities: 0
- Phase of flight: Takeoff and climb
- Cause: The pilot failed to maintain control during the initial climb. The NTSB also cited an inadequate preflight inspection, the separation of an emergency exit, and the pilot's lack of a multi-engine rating.
A Cessna 411 twin, which had reportedly sat unflown for years, took off from Lee's Summit with only its pilot aboard. It lost control in the initial climb, banked steeply and hit the ground. The pilot was not injured, but the aircraft was destroyed.
