Following the maintenance inspection and customs detail the pilot departed the airport; however, shortly after take-off, the pilot returned to the departure airport after experiencing a problem with the airplane's global positioning system (GPS). Repairs to the unit were made and the pilot departed the airport. Approximately 10 minutes after the departure, local authorities received notification of a downed airplane east of the airport. The airplane collided with rising terrain approximately five miles east of the airport. Witnesses reported hearing the airplane fly up the valley east of the airport. One witness stated the airplane was running ".. smooth, strong and easy", but didn't seem to be "pulling”. A second witness reported the airplane was flying low up the valley and the engine was running smooth. Post accident examination of the airplane's engine revealed no evidence to indicate a mechanical failure that would have resulted in a loss of engine power.

Damaged 9Jan88 when the engine quit on initial climb out caused by fuel starvation with air in the fuel system. The aircraft landed back at Oxnard, CA with the landing gear retracted. The aircraft experienced a total loss of engine power during cruise flight at 3,800 feet 2Dec93. The pilot made a forced landing in a dry river bed about two miles east of Santa Paula, California. During rollout, the airplane collided with vegetation and was substantially damaged. The flight originated from Camarillo, California. The pilot reported that during the flight all systems appeared to operate normally, and the fuel and oil pressures were within normal operating limits. Suddenly, he detected a "very strong smell of aviation gasoline and the engine stopped running”. The pilot stated that he attempted to restart the engine, but was not successful. The pilot further reported that he did not have sufficient altitude to glide to any airport, so he made an emergency landing in a nearby river bed. The airplane's carburettor was examined. The engine stoppage had resulted from it having been flooded with excessive fuel, the cause of the flooding related to the improper functioning of the carburettor’s needle valve pin.

Substantially damaged at Monroeville, PA 14Aug65. The left rudder cable failed precluding proper operation of the brakes and the aircraft overshot the runway, colliding with trees. Crashed at Redcliffe, CO 15Aug86 (2 fatalities). Witnesses reported that the aircraft flew near their house at a very low altitude, then climbed in the direction of the sun to clear over a bridge. Moments later, the aircraft collided with power lines that were suspended between two towers. The towers were located on top of rock formations near the bridge and were 1027ft apart. Impact with the lines occurred near where they drooped to their lowest point about 250' agl. After hitting the power lines, the aircraft continued to fly, but the pilot was unable to maintain altitude. The aircraft subsequently crashed into trees on mountainous terrain. Substantially damaged at Lake County Airport (LXV), Leadville, CO 5Sep08. During take-off the engine did not produce full power. The airplane drifted to the right and the pilot attempted to correct with the application of left rudder and aileron control. The airplane became airborne and the left wing contacted the ground. The airplane settled back to the ground and headed towards the left side of the runway, at which time the pilot elected to abort the take-off. The airplane became airborne one additional time, departed the runway environment to the left, and impacted several trees. Both leading edges were crushed aft, crushing multiple ribs, and wrinkling the leading edge skin. Several stringers and both sides of the horizontal stabilizer sustained impact damage. Density altitude at the time of the accident was estimated to be 11,570 feet 84996 (MSN 88-17077) 84997 (MSN 88-17078) 84998 (MSN 88-17079) Modified as a deck landing trainer with tail hook arrester gear; designated SNJ-5C.

The aircraft experienced a loss of control in flight while maneuvering near Woodward Field, Camden, South Carolina 6Sep97. The airplane was operated by the Western North Carolina Air Museum. The pilot and his passenger were fatally injured, and the airplane was destroyed. The flight originated from Woodward Field. A friend of the pilot stated he was on the last flight of the day after giving rides in the airplane all day at an airshow. The accident flight was a personal flight in which the pilot was taking the passenger for a ride to thank him for his help throughout the day. According to the witness, the aircraft was topped off before a previous flight, and he estimated the aircraft had between 80 and 85 gallons of fuel onboard. Two witnesses in the area observed a low flying airplane which was doing steep turns, approximately 60 - 70 degrees of bank. They heard the airplane engine "begin missing". Ten seconds later, the engine quit. During this time, the pilot remained in a left bank. According to the witnesses, "after the airspeed deteriorated, the aircraft snapped, and rolled to the right and entered a right hand spin". They observed two full rotations before the airplane disappeared behind the trees. During the second rotation, they believed the engine restarted and was running at full power upon impact. Another witness in the area heard the airplane in the area of her house. After hearing it for some time, she heard complete silence. Shortly thereafter, she heard two "pops" and saw a trail of black smoke from behind the trees.

Damaged when ground looped during the landing rollout at Panola County Airport, Batesville, MS 5May66. The T-6 collided with a parked Cessna 172G N3843L during the landing rollout. The Cessna was substantially damaged. During a night straight-in approach at Pacoima, CA 2Oct89 the aircraft collided with an unlighted pole 41 foot AGL, 1700 feet short of the threshold. The pilot stated that the visual cues he was using outside the cockpit were inadequate for his night time approach. After the collision the pilot executed a go-around and returned to Van Nuys Airport, Los Angeles, CA. Crashed following a loss of control during initial climb after take-off from Kingsville Naval Air Station (NQI), Kingsville, Texas 25Apr18. The pilot and passenger were fatally injured and the airplane was destroyed. The pilot requested a right hand teardrop turn for a departure toward the north. The witnesses reported seeing the airplane in a steep right bank with some witnesses reporting that the bank angle exceeded 90 degrees of bank. The airplane descended nose low and the right bank angle lessened before the airplane struck the ground. Both wings separated with the right wing coming to rest at the east edge of the pavement for taxiway B. The fuselage came to rest on its right side about 30 feet west of the right wing. The left wing came to rest about 100 feet further west. The airplane's engine separated from the fuselage and the supercharger section of the engine separated from the cylinder section. Control system continuity from the elevator and rudder was confirmed from the surfaces forward to their respective cockpit controls. The aileron control system had numerous cable breaks, however, each identified cable break was consistent with overload failure of the cables. The removable rear cockpit control stick was found lying on the ramp adjacent to the airplane.
