On December 20, 2024, about 2315 Hawaii-Aleutian standard time, a Raytheon Aircraft Company (formerly Beech) twin-engine, turbine-powered C90A airplane, N438CA, was substantially damaged when it was involved in an accident near Honolulu, Hawaii.

As a result, N438CA sustained substantial damage to the right engine firewall and engine mounts.
