A Chartright Air Cessna 560 Encore was conducting flight HRT705 from Toronto/Lester B. Pearson Intl. (CYYZ), ON to Fort Lauderdale Exec Airport (KFXE), FL. During flight over Canadian territory, the left engine cowlings detached resulting in loss of control and aircraft upset. After significant altitude loss, the flight crew regained control, declared an emergency and diverted to Buffalo/Niagara Intl (KBUF), NY. A partial portion of the lower cowl fell from the aircraft after landing. The remaining cowl sections were missing from the aircraft and have not been located.
The aircraft received damage to sections of the aft fuselage and the horizontal stabilizer.
