Flights
Accidents & Crashes
- In November 2020, ViaFly VF002 operating an SI-A 300 on a routine flight from Murrville-Arcadia Intl to West Mesa Intl suffered an engine failure. The right engine of the aircraft shut down unexpectedly mid flight. The pilot managed to safely divert the flight to Fort Yaxier International and landed the plane successfully with no casualties reported. The issue is currently being looked into. This follows more than eleven issues of engine shutdowns from many airlines operating SI-A-100s and -300s since the start of 2020.
