The aircraft was on its way to the US with Army personnel on board. About an hour after departure from Pomigliano Airbase, an engine failed, forcing the crew to ditch the aircraft into the Tyrrhenian Sea. On impact, the aircraft broke in two and sank in 30 seconds. Twelve hours later, twelve people were rescued while 13 others were killed. A body was recovered on the Italian coast over four months later, some 300 miles from the crash site.
