Antonov AN-26

The aircraft was completing a humanitarian flight to Goma on behalf of the United Nations Organization. On final approach, at a distance of 1,000 metres from the runway threshold, the aircraft encountered windshear. The captain initiated a go-around procedure but the aircraft continued to descent until it struck the ground and crashed to the right of the runway. All 10 occupants were injured and the aircraft was destroyed.

After takeoff from Luzamba Airport, while on a cargo flight to Luanda on behalf of the Angolan operator Avita Serviços Aéreos, the aircraft was hit by a surface-to-air missile that struck an engine. The crew reduced his altitude and was able to make an emergency landing in an open field some 30 km from Luzamba. All five occupants evacuated safely but were captured by UNITA rebels.

Following a visual approach, the aircraft landed too far down the runway which is 1,500 metres long. Unable to stop within the remaining distance, the aircraft overran and came to rest in a ravine, bursting into flames. 25 people escaped uninjured while nine others were injured and two passengers were killed.

The aircraft departed Managua Airport at 0710LT on a flight to Bluefields, carrying 21 passengers and a crew of seven, among them 15 civilians. On approach, the crew was instructed by ATC to follow a holding pattern because another aircraft was blocking the main runway. Shortly later, the aircraft struck the slope of a mountain located 6 km from the airport. All 28 occupants were killed.

Crashed in the Angolan province of Malanje about 30 minutes after takeoff from Luanda-4 de Fevereiro Airport, probably after being shot down by UNITA rebels. The pilot reported an engine fire and that he was going to attempt an emergency landing at Malanje. About 3 minutes later, the pilot reported that they were going to attempt an immediate landing straight ahead. This was the last contact with the crew. It was reported that at impact the right propeller was feathered, the landing gear was up and flaps were deployed at 25°. All four crew members and 20 passengers were killed. The wreckage was found in an isolated area in 2003 only.

Following an uneventful flight from Dikson, the aircraft landed at Norilsk-Alykel Airport at a speed of 200 km/h. After touchdown, the crew started the braking procedure when the captain inadvertently raised the landing gear. As the gear were locked down, they remained extended but after entering the taxiway, the crew increased power and the speed reached 135 km/h when an unloading of the landing gear and a decompression of the right hand main landing gear damper occurred. This caused the right main gear to collapse slowly. The airplane went out of control, veered to the right and came to rest out of the taxiway. All 20 occupants escaped uninjured while the aircraft was damaged beyond repair.

In unclear circumstances, the aircraft was hit by ground fire. The crew attempted an emergency landing in Gogrial. The aircraft crash landed and came to rest some 200 metres further. There were no casualties while the aircraft was written off. The exact date of the accident remains unknown, somewhere in 1997. The wreckage is still there at N08.542051 E28.09754 by July 2009.

Crashed in unknown circumstances near Kunduz, killing all 36 occupants.

On final approach, the crew encountered limited visibility due to snow falls but the pilot-in-command was able to maintain a visual contact with the approach light system. Nevertheless, he failed to realized he descended below the MDA when the aircraft struck the ground 178 metres short of runway threshold and 77 metres to the right of its extended centerline. On impact, the nose gear collapsed and the aircraft came to rest against meteo installations. All 17 occupants escaped uninjured while the aircraft was damaged beyond repair.

On approach to Cafunfo Airport, following an uneventful cargo flight from Luanda, the crew encountered bad weather conditions with thunderstorm. On short final, the pilot reported a minor technical problem with the left engine and initiated a go-around procedure. Shortly later, the aircraft stalled and crashed short of runway, bursting into flames. Four crew members were killed and four others were injured.
