- Aircraft: Beechcraft 300 Super King Air
- Location: Nordelta, Buenos Aires province, Argentina
- Fatalities: 2

A Beechcraft 300 Super King Air (LV WLT) on a private flight from Lincoln to Aeroparque in Buenos Aires crashed on 14 September 2014 in Nordelta, Buenos Aires province, while descending on an instrument approach. The pilot could not intercept the ILS at about 260 knots, lost control after turns below the glide path, and the aircraft crashed onto two houses. The pilot and one passenger, former LAPA owner Gustavo Andres Deutsch, were killed, and the Argentine JST cited weather, workload, single pilot operation and certification deficiencies.
