- Phase of flight: Approach and landing
- Cause: NTSB (CEN15FA328, as quoted by ASN and summarized in news coverage): the pilot's improper pitch control during landing, which allowed the propeller to strike the runway, and his failure to maintain adequate airspeed during the climbing left turn of the go around, resulting in an aerodynamic stall at low altitude.
A Socata TBM 700 (N425KJ) landed at Milwaukee Lawrence J Timmerman Airport on 29 July 2015 after a flight from Beverly, Massachusetts, in visual conditions. The propeller struck the runway after landing, and the pilot called a go around, during which the aircraft climbed into a steep left turn, stalled at low altitude and hit terrain. The pilot and his daughter were killed.
