NTSB summary

On March 22, 2026, at 1418 central daylight time (CDT), a Beechcraft B200GT (Super King Air) airplane, N886DS, was destroyed when it was involved in an accident near Sharp, Louisiana. The pilot was fatally injured. The airplane was operated as a Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 91 personal flight. A review of Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) ADS-B flight track data revealed that at 1249 eastern daylight time, the airplane departed Fort Lauderdale Executive Airport (FXE), Fort Lauderdale, Florida, on a cross-country flight to Dallas Executive Airport (RBD), Dallas, Texas. After takeoff, the airplane continued northwest toward Tallahassee, Florida, where it turned west after it flew over the Seminole VHF Omnidirectional Range/Tactical Air Navigation (VORTAC). According to recorded air traffic control (ATC) transmissions, at 1359:13 CDT (all times CDT unless otherwise noted), the pilot contacted the Houston Center controller and reported being level at flight level 280 (FL280). At that time the airplane was about 4.5 nautical miles (nm) east-southeast of Gloster, Mississippi. The airplane continued west toward Alexandria, Louisiana. At 1411:54, the pilot asked the controller to confirm his flight routing after the Alexandria VORTAC. At 1412:06, the controller told the pilot that the flight was routed to RBD via the DODJE 6 arrival procedure. At 1412:13, the pilot replied “okay, I’ll put that in here real quick here, six delta sierra.” At 1414:47, the airplane turned west-northwest after it flew over the Alexandria VORTAC. After the turn, the airplane continued on

    Phase and cause come from the NTSB’s own coding of each accident, which only exists from 2008 on, so these two filters leave out 1982–2007. Cause categories are only recorded for some accidents, and early findings can change.
