Accident narrative

On December 13, 1994, Flagship Airlines Flight 3379, a domestic scheduled passenger flight from Greensboro to Raleigh, North Carolina, crashed during a go-around, killing 15 out of the 20 people on board. The aircraft, a British Aerospace Jetstream 32 with 18 passengers and 2 crew members, was approaching Raleigh–Durham International Airport when the flight's captain decided to conduct a go-around after believing that one of the engines had failed. During the go-around, he failed to follow the procedures for a single-engine go-around. The aircraft stalled and crashed into a forest southwest of the airport. Both crew members as well as 13 passengers died; the 5 surviving passengers suffered serious injuries.
