- Date: February 11, 2015
- Aircraft: Beechcraft 1900C
- Location: Miami-Executive (Kendall-Tamiami), Florida, United States
- Fatalities: 4
- Phase of flight: Takeoff and climb
- Cause: NTSB: Uncommanded travel of the left propeller to the feathered position during takeoff, for reasons that could not be determined due to impact damage. Contributing was the flight crew's failure to establish a coordinated climb after the left engine was shut down, including not readjusting rudder trim.
On 11 February 2015 a Beechcraft 1900C (YV1674) on a positioning flight from Miami Executive Airport to Providenciales with two pilots and two passengers took off on its first flight after a propeller replacement. About two seconds after rotation the left propeller moved toward feather, the engine was shut down and the airplane, flying with full right rudder trim, stalled and hit terrain. All four occupants were killed and the airplane was destroyed by impact and post crash fire.
