Training

The crew was completing a local training flight at Nairobi-Embakasi Airport. On approach, the crew decided to shut down an engine to simulate a failure. By mistake, the instructor feathered the wrong propeller. Due to insufficient speed, the airplane stalled and struck the ground short of runway threshold, bounced and flew for 1,5 mile before crashing in flames. All three crew members were evacuated while the aircraft was destroyed by fire.

Severely damaged on a training flight when the left flap did not extend on landing. Not repaired.

While taking part to an exercise in the Warsaw region and while flying at a relative low altitude, the airplane collided with a skydiver that struck the cockpit and seriously wounded the captain. The skydiver was killed and the copilot was able to complete an emergency belly landing. Some crew members were injured and the aircraft was damaged beyond repair.

The crew was completing a training mission from Hiroshima to Hōfu. While approaching Hōfu Airport, the four engine aircraft struck the slope of Mt Ohira located 8 km northeast of the airfield. All three crew members were killed.

The crew departed Naples-Capodichino at 1740LT on a training mission. Following several circuits over the region, the aircraft suffered an engine failure in flight. Control was lost and the airplane crashed into the sea about 32 km southwest of Ischia Island. A crew member was rescued while three others were killed.

The crew (10 pilots under supervision and four instructors) were involved in a local training flight at Ulyanovsk-Baratayevka Airport. After takeoff, while climbing by night at an altitude of 150 meters, the crew raised the undercarriage when the engine number four failed. The crew tried to feather the propeller that went into auto-rotation. Due to high drag, the airplane banked right, lost height and crashed in a huge explosion 1,090 meters past the runway end. A crew member was seriously injured while 13 other occupants were killed. The airplane was completely destroyed.

The crew (pilots and instructors) departed Pittsburgh-Greater Pittsburgh Airport at 2230LT for a local training flight (proficiency check). About thirty minutes into the flight, the crew reported an engine fire and elected to return for an emergency landing when the airplane went out of control, clipped trees and crashed in flames near the Snowden Junior-Senior High School. The aircraft was destroyed and all five crew members were killed.

During the takeoff roll, the four engine airplane started to skid on runway. The pilot-in-command pull the control column and completed the rotation. The airplane lifted off and climbed a bit then sank and crashed onto the runway. Out of control, it veered off runway and came to rest. All four crew members were uninjured while the aircraft was damaged beyond repair.

The crew was completing a local training flight at Albion Park Airport, south of Sydney. En route, the crew decided to shut the right engine down but was unable to feather its propeller. The airplane lost height and the crew attempted an emergency landing when the airplane struck trees and crashed. All four occupants were rescued while the aircraft was damaged beyond repair.

The crew departed Rio de Janeiro-Santos Dumont for a local training flight. En route, the pilot voluntarily shut down the left engine to simulate a failure. As the crew elected to feather its propeller, the prop went into reverse. The crew decided to return to Santos Dumont Airport but as he was unable to maintain a safe altitude, he decided to ditch the aircraft 50 meters off the Itaipu beach. Both occupants were rescued while the aircraft was damaged beyond repair.
