On August 16 one of the longest streaks without a fatal accident among U.S.-registered business jets came to an end. On that day, a Sabreliner and a Cessna 172 collided in midair near San Diego, killing all four people aboard the jet and the sole occupant of the Skyhawk. The civilian jet was operating under Part 91 but on a mission for the military at the time of the collision. Until this event, no N-numbered business jet had been involved in a fatal crash between January and mid-August.
