Positioning

While on a positioning flight to Fairbanks, both engines failed simultaneously. Unable to maintain the prescribed altitude, the crew decided to attempt an emergency landing. The airplane crash landed in a snow covered area located about 100 miles north of Fairbanks, near Beaver. All three crew members were rescued while the aircraft was damaged beyond repair.

Crashed on landing on Adelaide Island. Sole on board, the pilot was killed.

On a positioning flight from Cahul to Vulcӑneşti after crop-spraying operations for the "Gigant" kolkhoz (collective farm), the intoxicated crew performed unauthorized manoeuvre. The aircraft lost speed, entered a dive and crashed in an open field located between Vladimirovca and Gӑvӑnoasa, some 2 km northwest of Gӑvӑnoasa and burnt out. All four occupants, two mechanics and two pilots were killed.

The pilot was completing a night approach to Charlotte-Douglas Airport when, on short final, the twin engine aircraft struck trees and crashed in flames in a wooded area. The aircraft was destroyed and the pilot was killed.

While in cruising altitude in an uncontrolled airspace, the twin engine aircraft collided with a USN Grumman F11F-1 Tiger registered 141860. Following the collision, both aircraft dove into the ground and crashed in Victoria. Both pilots in both aircraft were killed.

While on a night approach to Fort Lauderdale-Bradley Airport, one of the engine failed. The pilot attempted a go around when the aircraft stalled and crashed short of runway. The pilot was injured and the aircraft was destroyed.

Shortly after take-off from Leeds-Bradford Airport, for a positioning flight to Belfast, the cabin filled with smoke which issued from the camera hatch near the starboard wing root. The aircraft was, by this time, about 800 feet above the downwind end of the runway from which it had taken off, and the pilot closed the throttles and began a descending turn to port. At about 400 feet, power was applied for a base leg and short final but, despite full throttle, the airspeed began to fall. Because he found it necessary to apply an increasing amount of left rudder, the pilot concluded that the starboard engine had failed and he decided to make a forced landing in a field outside the airport. During the approach, the aircraft was dived, and turned, in an attempt to avoid HT wires, but it collided with a port and struck the ground heavily. The airplane was damaged beyond repair and all three occupants escaped uninjured.

The aircraft departed Chita Airport on October 31 on a positioning flight to Minsk with intermediate stops at Krasnoyarsk, Novosibirsk, Omsk, Chelyabinsk and Kuybyshev, carrying a crew of five and four passengers, crew wife's and children. On the leg from Krasnoyarsk to Novosibirsk, weather conditions worsened and the crew elected to gain height due to icing conditions but this was denied by ATC. While cruising at an altitude between 900 and 1,500 meters, the airplane went out of control and entered a dive before crashing in flames in a dense wooded area located near Ribnoye, about 23 km east of Tamozhenka. Due to low clouds and snow falls, rescue teams could be dispatched only a day later but all SAR operations were suspended on November 22 as no trace of the aircraft nor the 9 occupants was found. These operations were restarted in May 1963 and the wreckage was eventually found on May 29, 1963. It was reported the aircraft struck the ground in a 70-80° nose down attitude and disintegrated on impact. Debris were found 200 meters around the point of impact, the engines were found three meters deep into the earth and a part of the right elevator was found 1 km from the main wreckage. The accident was not survivable.

Shortly after takeoff from Chicago-Merrill C. Meigs Airport, while in initial climb, the airplane stalled and crashed into Michigan Lake. The aircraft was lost and both crew members were killed. They were performing a positioning flight to Chicago-Palwaukee Airport when the accident occurred.

The aircraft was on a charter flight to Livingstone to pick up United Nations troops (34 Swedish blue helmets) on leave and take them back to Elizabethville. It took off from Salisbury Airport, and shortly after take-off suddenly dipped its right wing. After a slow recovery, it climbed away to between 100 - 150 ft and then went into a turn to the left with the port propeller windmilling. This turn continued to get steeper until the aircraft rolled over and dived inverted to the ground less than 600 yd southeast of the threshold of runway 06. Fire broke out but was quickly extinguished. The pilot and co-pilot were killed as a result of the accident, and the stewardess was seriously injured. No passengers were aboard the flight. The accident occurred at 0902 hours GMT.
