2023 – N2357 – Bobby Ibrahim – Velocity SE/FG – Andrews, NC – 1

2021 – N755V – Cedric Jackson – Velocity SE/RG – Titusville, FL – 1

All we know so far is this retired Air Force and 777 pilot took off from the factory and crash shortly after at Titusville Space Coast Airport. Witnesses indicated what appeared to be a go-around/rejected landing, slow nose high climb, and what appeared to be a stall next to the runway. That should not be […]

2015 – N112TH – Andrew Liptak – Velocity SE/RG – Sebastian, FL – 0

I’m not yet sure about the tail number, but based on the color scheme, and the fact this airplane was for sale, it seems right. I’ll update this when the NTSB report drops. It looks like from the reporting that the copilot door opened on takeoff, and he tried to return to the airport. I’m […]
