From Wikipedia

Aloha IslandAir Flight 1712 was a scheduled domestic passenger flight that took place on October 28, 1989. The flight originated in Hana Airport, Maui, Hawaiʻi and stopped over in Kahului Airport, Maui. It was scheduled to continue to Molokaʻi Airport, Molokaʻi and then to Honolulu International Airport; however, it crashed while enroute from Kahului to Molokaʻi. The leg in which the aircraft crashed was expected to take 25 minutes, on visual flight rules under provisions of 14 CFR Part 135. The aircraft struck terrain at 600 feet (180 m), and at a heading of 260° near Hālawa Valley, Hawaii. Both crew members and all 18 passengers died in the accident. The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) determined the cause of the accident was by pilot error.
