- Date: February 19, 2012
- Aircraft: Cessna 414 Chancellor
- Location: Hayden-Yampa Valley, Colorado, United States
- Fatalities: 2
- Phase of flight: Approach and landing
- Cause: The pilot's inadvertent stall during a missed approach. Operating in forecast icing without using all anti-ice systems contributed.
A Cessna 414 Chancellor flew an instrument approach to Hayden in deteriorating winter weather and was repeatedly below the glideslope, drifting off the centerline. After the pilot began a missed approach the airplane lost speed and stalled into the ground. The airframe likely collected ice during the descent and approach, and the anti-ice systems were found switched off.
