- Date: May 18, 2003
- Aircraft: Beechcraft 350 Super King Air
- Location: West Houston, Texas, United States
- Fatalities: 0
- Phase of flight: Approach and landing
- Cause: Severed hydraulic brake hoses caused a loss of braking, and the pilot could not control the aircraft after the roll. Examination showed both hoses had been damaged with a hand tool.
A Super King Air on a positioning flight to Las Vegas landed at West Houston and rolled off the far end of the runway. The pilot had lost braking and steering on the roll after a propeller fault. Both brake hoses were later found damaged, and the aircraft ended up in the grass beyond the runway.
