A Beechcraft Super King Air B200 (VT HRA) operated by the Government of Haryana was taking off from Chandigarh on 27 March 2014 with Governor Jagannath Pahadia on board, bound for Delhi. After rotation at about 98 knots the aircraft yawed and rolled left, struck the ground in a left bank, and caught fire; all occupants escaped without injury. The AAIB investigated and attributed the accident to a stall of the left wing at very low height with contributing crew factors.
