A Carson Air Ltd. Beech B300 (C-GILK/CA611) from Vancouver, BC (CYVR) to Campbell River, BC (CYBL) encountered electrical failure shortly after take-off. Aircraft requested to return to CYVR before losing contact with Vancouver (VR) Departure control. Aircraft then called the Vancouver/Boundary Bay, BC (CZBB) tower via phone, declared an emergency and landed on Runway 07 safely. No impact on operations.
UPDATE from Airworthiness: A Civil Aviation Safety Inspector (CASI) looked into this occurrence. Aircraft C-GILK started up at approximately 1500Z, carried out pre-flight checks and positioned for take-off. Take-off occurred at approximately 1512Z, through 400 feet the landing gear was selected to up and both generators disconnected. The crew continued the departure to the southwest and reached an altitude of 4551 feet at approximately 1515Z and began a descent. The aircraft lost all power at 1516Z which put them 2.6NM NW of Boundary Bay Airport. The crew contacted Boundary Bay (CZBB) Tower on a cell phone, declared an emergency and landed safely after manually extending the landing gear. Total time in flight was 6.5 minutes. Maintenance investigated and noted the battery was still very warm, indicating a high rate of discharge. It is suspected that an internally failed battery coupled with a sudden high electrical load (landing gear retraction) caused the system voltage to drop enough to unlatch both generator buses. As this is not how the aircraft is designed to react, maintenance is working with Beechcraft (Textron) technical support for solutions. Once it is determined how the failure occurred an Service Difficulty Report (SDR) will be submitted.
Update TSB Report #A19P0139: C-GILK, a Beech B300 operated by Carson Air, was conducting a flight from Vancouver Intl (CYVR), BC to Campbell River (CYBL), BC with 2 passengers and 2 flight crew on board. On take off, when the crew retracted the landing gear, both generator annunciator lights illuminated. The flight crew actioned the memory checklist items for a dual generator failure. The crew began to declare an emergency with ATC when the radios stopped working and the screens for the G1000 flight instrument system failed. All electrical annunciators, communications and instruments failed except for the emergency back-up standby attitude indicator and altimeter. The crew were able to remain in VMC and elected to proceed to Vancouver/Boundary Bay (CZBB), BC airport because the aircraft was already proceeding in that direction. The first officer called the CZBB ATC tower by cell phone and declared an emergency. The captain actioned the checklist to manually extend the landing gear and the aircraft landed in CZBB without further incident. The operators maintenance found the aircrafts main battery (Concorde p/n RG-380E/44K, s/n 40819077) was hot and testing at 20 volts. The main battery was removed and replaced with cap tested battery (serial number 40885147).
