On 14 August 1983 at 1213 Local time a Rockwell Commander 114A aircraft registered as N215XP took off
From Panama City, FL (PFN) the destination was Tuscaloosa, AL (TCL).
SHORTLY AFTER TAKEOFF, THE PLT ADVISED DEPARTURE
CONTROL THAT HE WAS GOING AROUND CLOUDS & THAT THERE WAS NO ACTIVITY ON HIS ONBOARD STORM SCOPE. SEVERAL MINUTES LATER RADAR CONTACT WAS LOST. THE ACFT HAD BROKEN UP IN FLIGHT. ALTHOUGH VMC PREVAILED AT THE DEPARTURE airport, THERE WAS TOWERING CUMULUS NORTH THROUGH SOUTH.
The pilot was a 36-year-old doctor with 4 passengers on board. While climbing to altitude he probably flew into towering cumulus clouds, where turbulent winds ripped the wings off.

Incident No -2
The pilot disregards BAD WEATHER and crashes short of the runway!
The flight instructor and the private pilot, who was receiving instruction, departed for a cross-country flight without obtaining an official weather briefing. As they approached their destination airport, they encountered instrument meteorological conditions, including thunderstorms and low-level wind shear advisories. Despite receiving wind and weather information from the tower controller at the destination, they continued the approach to deteriorating weather conditions.
As they neared the final approach fix, rain intensity increased, and the controller issued a low-altitude alert.
Despite this, the aircraft continued descending and ultimately crashed into houses before coming to rest inverted in a retention pond.
The flight instructor failed to anticipate the impact of thunderstorms on the flight and disregarded severe weather advisories. Both pilots failed to recognize the hazardous weather conditions and did not consider diverting to an alternate airport.
Probable Cause: The pilots' improper in-flight weather evaluation and decision to continue the approach, resulted in an encounter with a thunderstorm, a loss of airplane control, and a collision with terrain. Contributing to the accident was the flight instructor's inadequate preflight weather evaluation.
