- Date: November 10, 2015
- Aircraft: BAe 125
- Location: Akron-Canton, Ohio, United States
- Fatalities: 9
- Phase of flight: Approach and landing
- Cause: Flight crew mismanagement of the approach and deviations from company procedures leading to an unstabilized approach, descent below minimum altitude and aerodynamic stall
Execuflight flight 1526, a BAe 125 700A on an on demand charter from Dayton, stalled during a nonprecision localizer approach to runway 25 at Akron Fulton International Airport and hit a four unit apartment building. The two pilots and seven passengers were killed and nobody on the ground was hurt. The NTSB found the crew mismanaged an unstabilized approach and descended below minimum descent altitude without visual contact with the runway.
