Aircraft destroyed May 31, 1985 in Nashville, TN (BNA). N181TG crashed after taking off from runway 20R when the no. 1 engine shut down. The #1 engine probably shut down because the left lever was found between the 'fuel off' and 'feather' positions, de-activating the autofeather system. The aircraft came to rest 100 feet past the runway end, 1720 feet left of the extended centreline.
