NTSB narrative
The certified flight instructor and the private pilot were returning to the airport in a single-engine airplane after completing a biennial flight review. Data obtained from the onboard primary flight display revealed that as the airplane approached the airport, it entered a snap roll maneuver, and began to descend. The airplane did not have enough altitude to recover and subsequently collided with terrain inverted approximately one-quarter of a mile away from the airport. Examination of the airframe and engine revealed there were no pre-mishap anomalies.
Probable cause
The flight instructor's failure to maintain control of the airplane, which resulted in an inadvertent stall while maneuvering.

Source notes (5)
- Unreviewed is an editorial label, not an investigation status. API-sourced is not report-checked or human-reviewed. Explicit event totals are used without summing aircraft injury tables; onboard allocation is withheld. Unknown values remain unknown. The operation category is mapped from the NTSB-reported FAR part and has not been reviewed.
- Filled from the NTSB case API where the bulk record had no value: investigation status, coordinates. Values present in the bulk record are kept.
- The date is the local date, which is the same as the UTC date the NTSB stores.
- API snapshot SHA-256: 4fe14086234c06843a4cf92b8ea374728d6972166139cb483ed38638b3de334a; retrieved 2026-09-13T18:54:47.719Z.
- Corrected after a review of the NTSB narrative, which states these values explicitly: departure. 1K2 is Lindsay Municipal Airport in Lindsay, Oklahoma; the narrative places the crash a quarter mile from the airport and the record location is Lindsay, OK. The 'KS' state is a typo.
