On August 11, 2021, about 0900 mountain daylight time, a Cessna 425 Conquest 1, N783MB, sustained substantial damage when it was involved in an accident near Helena, Montana. The pilot and two passengers sustained serious injuries. The airplane was operated as a Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 91 business flight. The pilot stated that on the morning of the accident he refueled the airplane to full wing tanks by adding an additional 207 gallons of Jet A. Shortly thereafter, he departed from his home airport in Faribault, Minnesota and continued to his destination at a cruise altitude of 24,000 ft mean sea level. Air Traffic Control transmissions and automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast data indicate that, while en route at 0847:35, the pilot reported to an air traffic controller that the airplane had an engine [left engine] flame-out and requested a descent. The pilot opted to divert from the originally planned destination and contacted Helena approach control. He stated that the airplane was 16 miles from Helena and descending through 19,000 ft, advising the controller that he may need to lose altitude to land on runway 27. The controller responded that the pilot could maneuver north of the airport to align with the right base leg of the traffic pattern to the runway. At 0852:59 the pilot reported to the air traffic controller that he had an hour and a half of fuel on board and about 3 minutes later the airplane made a right turn to the north. At 0857:15, with the airplane about 7,900 ft msl, the pilot reported that the right engine experienced a loss of power (see Figure 1 below). At 0859:02, the pilot reported the airplane was going to collide with trees. The airplane came to rest with the right wing and empennage severed from the fuselage. There was fuel onboard the airplane at the time of impact, the quantity is unknown due to the fuel tanks being breached. The pilot estimated there was about 400 pounds in each tank at the time of the occurrence. Figure 1: Flight Track Plot The pilot noted that the airplane had undergone an annual inspection about 5 months before the accident, in March 2021. The airplane had accumulated about 20 flight hours since that inspection. During the examination of both the left and right engines, no evidence of a failure or anomaly was found. The left engine's compressor section showed the ability to rotate the first stage compressor wheel by hand, but the power section, specifically the propeller shaft, could not be manually rotated. The reduction gearbox had no damage to the case, but the propeller shaft was broken and the propeller flange was missing. Buckling was observed in the exhaust duct. The gas generator case, accessory gearbox, inlet case, and inlet screen were undamaged. The fuel control unit’s (FCU) connecting arm moved freely, but the reversing lever guide pin was bent and the carbon block was missing. The pneumatic lines, oil and fuel filters, power turbine (PT) blades, and first stage blades in the compressor section were intact and without damage. In the right engine, similar findings were observed with intact components in the compressor section, reduction gearbox, gas generator case, accessory gearbox, inlet case, and inlet screen. The power control linkage and reversing linkage were properly connected with intact hardware and safety mechanisms. The pneumatic lines, oil and fuel filters, PT blades, first stage blades in the compressor section, propeller shaft, and propeller retention bolts were undamaged. The controls and accessories, including the FCU, fuel pump, ignition system, fuel nozzles, flow divider, air system's bleed valve, propeller governor, and torque transducer, were all undamaged. Both fuel pumps were inspected, and no contamination was detected in the removed filters. A partial amount of fuel was found in both filter bowls. A complete examination of the fuel system could not be completed due to the damage incurred to the airplane at impact. According to the engine manufacturer, if an engine flames out in flight due to fuel starvation, it does not leave behind unique evidence different than a normal engine shut down. He added that both engines flaming out within a short time is not consistent with any dual-engine aircraft systemic design behaviors that could have occurred other than a fuel supply or delivery issue.
