Focke-Wulf Fw.200 Condor

After touchdown in Yakutsk Airport, the airplane skidded and veered off runway to the right, lost its left main gear and completed a spin before coming to rest. While all nine occupants escaped unhurt, the aircraft was considered as damaged beyond repair due to severe damages on both left engines and the left wing as well. At the time of the accident, a crosswind of 18 km/h was blowing over the airport.

Enroute, the crew encountered technical problems with two engines that should be shut down and their propeller feathered. Few minutes later, a third engine failed and the captain decided to attempt an emergency landing in the icy bay of Bajdarackaja Guba located in the south part of the Kara Sea. The aircraft crashed landed on ice and came to rest with its right wing broken in two and the engine number one sheared off. All 21 occupants were evacuated 16 days later. Recently imported in Russia, the aircraft totalized 90 flying hours only.

On touchdown, the aircraft went out of control then veered off runway and came to rest. There were no casualties but the aircraft was written off.

The four engine aircraft named 'Hessen' departed Berlin-Tempelhof Airport at 2025LT bound for Barcelona with an intermediate stop in Munich. At 2150LT, the captain informed Munich he was overflying Straubing and initiated the descent. About ten minutes later, due to poor weather conditions (clouds, thunderstorm activity and turbulences), the captain radioed that he was continuing directly to Barcelona. Five minutes later, the aircraft went out of control, dove into the ground and crashed in a huge explosion in a field located 500 metres north of Piesenkofen. The aircraft was destroyed by impact forces and a post crash fire and all 25 occupants were killed.

While approaching the Swedish coast while on a flight from Berlin to Stockholm, the four engine aircraft christened 'Friesland' was accidentally shot down by a German patrol boat and crashed in Malkläppen. All ten occupants were killed.
