Landing (descent or approach)

After landing on the grassy runway 36 at Jackson-Seven Lakes Airfield, the twin engine airplane went out of control, veered off runway to the left and came to rest against a tree. All three occupants were injured and the airplane was damaged beyond repair. It was officially registered N2072 and the registration NC2072 was on the fuselage.

The twin engine airplane was on approach to Steamboat Springs-Bob Adams Airport runway 14 when it departed the approach path to the right. It descended to the ground and crashed onto several houses located southwest of the airport, bursting into flames. The airplane was destroyed and both occupants were killed. The airplane was completing a flight from Longmont-Vance Brand Airport.

On final approach to Utrenniy Airport in marginal weather conditions, the airplane impacted the ground and crash landed about one km from the airport. All 41 occupants were rescued and transported to the airport terminal, among them three were injured including both pilots. The airplane was completing a special service from Sabetta.

On approach to Kinshasa-N'Djili Airport, at an altitude of 11,000 feet, the crew encountered technical problems with the left engine that was shut down. The crew continued the approach and was cleared to land on runway 24. After touchdown, the crew started the braking procedure and activated the right reverser when the airplane veered off runway to the right and came into soft ground. The nose gear collapsed and the airplane came to rest. There were no injuries among the occupants.

The twin engine airplane departed Windhoek-Eros Airport on a local post maintenance test flight, carrying two pilots and one technician. After takeoff, the crew encountered an unexpected situation and elected to return for an emergency landing. On final approach to runway 19, the airplane went out of control and crashed in a street located in the suburb of Pioneerspark, bursting into flames. All three occupants were killed.

The pilot was approaching Puerto Cabello-Bartolomé Salom Airport when he encountered technical problems. The twin engine airplane crash landed in the lagoon of La Salina located less than 2 km north of the airport. Two passengers were killed and three other occupants were injured.

The landing at Erechim-Comandante Kraemer Airport Runway 14 was performed in heavy rain falls. After touchdown, the crew started the braking procedure but the airplane failed to stop within the remaining distance. It overran, passed through a small road and lost its undercarriage before coming to rest in an open field. All five occupants were rescued, among them four were slightly injured.

The pilot departed Stockton Airport on a solo flight to Chino. On a standard approach in rainy conditions, the airplane suffered two altitude deviations which the pilot attributed to a problem with the autopilot. Towards the end of the flight, the airplane descended past the Minimum Vectoring Altitude (MVA) of 7,400 feet and was issued an altitude alert by the controller, but there was no response from the pilot. The airplane entered an uncontrolled descent with a rate of about 10'000 feet per minute until it crashed in mountainous terrain. The airplane was destroyed by impact forces and the pilot was killed.

Following a cargo flight from Juba, the airplane crashed upon landing at Malakal Airport. It veered off runway and eventually collided with a parked MD-82 registered 5Y-AXL that suffered an accident at the same airport last February 9. The airplane was destroyed and all seven occupants were rescued.
