Training

Crashed shortly after takeoff from Eskişehir for unknown reason. Both pilots were killed.

The crew was completing a training sortie in RAF Kinloss. The final approach was completed in heavy cross winds (up to 50 knots) and during the last segment, the captain decided to abandon the landing procedure and started a go around maneuver. During initial climb, while at a height of 250 feet, the four engine aircraft went out of control and crashed in a huge explosion. All eight crew members were killed.

Shortly after takeoff from Ellsworth AFB, while in initial climb, the aircraft went out of control and crashed in a huge explosion in a prairie located 5 miles north of the airfield. All 17 occupants were killed.

The crew was involved in a training mission and was in charge to locate an appropriate dropping zone for paratroopers. While flying at an estimated height of few hundred yards, the crew realized that smoke was coming out from the right engine. Few seconds later, the aircraft banked right, dove into the ground and crashed in a prairie. All five crew members were killed.

Shortly after takeoff from Smoky Hill AFB (Schilling AFB), while on a local training flight, an engine failed. Four crew members were able to bail out before the aircraft dove into the ground and crashed in a field located two miles southeast of Smolan, about four miles south of the airbase. The aircraft was destroyed by impact forces and nine crew members were killed. Of the four crew members who were able to bail out, three were injured and one was killed.

The crew was engaged in a local training flight in Singapore-Seletar Airport. Just after liftoff, an engine was cut by the instructor. The aircraft stalled and bounced, causing the tail to separate. The seaplane crashed and came to rest. There were no casualties but the aircraft was written off.

During a training sortie in Laverton AFB, the crew encountered an unexpected situation and made an emergency landing in a field located one mile north of the airbase. Both occupants were rescued while the aircraft was damaged beyond repair.

The crew was completing a training flight from Oslo-Fornebu Airport to Oslo-Gardermoen Airport. The twin engine aircraft crash landed for unknown reason and was damaged beyond repair. All three crew members were unarmed.

The crew was performing a training sortie in RAF Lindholme. On final approach with one engine voluntarily inoperative, the pilot was unable to lower the undercarriage. The crew decided to go around when the aircraft stalled and hit the runway surface, crashing on its belly. There were no injuries but the aircraft was damaged beyond repair.

Shortly after takeoff from Cue Airport, while on a local training flight, an engine failed. The aircraft lost height, hit trees and crashed in a wooded area. Both pilots were killed.
