The airplane departed Kasese Airport at 1500LT on a cargo flight to Goma, carrying two pilots, one passenger and a load of various goods. En route, weather conditions deteriorated with low clouds and heavy rain falls. As the airplane failed to arrive at destination, SAR operations were initiated and the wreckage was found two days later in a dense wooded area located in South Kivu, about 139 km southwest of Goma. The airplane was destroyed by a post impact fire and all three occupants were killed.

The four engine aircraft departed Kisangani Airport on a cargo flight to Goma, carrying 7 crew members and a load consisting of minerals. As the aircraft failed to arrive in Goma, SAR operations were initiated but eventually abandoned a week later. In November 2012, the debris of an Antonov AN-12 were found by the team of the TL2 Project, a team led by Dr. Terese Hart, in a dense wooded area about 210 km south of Kisangani.

The crew departed Chicano, Angola, on a positioning flight to Kigali. While overflying DRC, the crew encountered severe turbulences. It seems that a fuel tank was broken following a structural failure, forcing the crew to attempt an emergency landing. The aircraft crash landed somewhere in DRC and was damaged beyond repair. Both occupants escaped uninjured.

The exact circumstances of this accident remains unknown. While landing on a 900 meters long gravel runway somewhere in DRC, one of the four engine was damaged. The crew later decided to takeoff on a three-engine configuration but a second engine failed during takeoff. The aircraft stalled and crashed near the runway end. There were no casualties.

En route from Isiro to Kisangani, the twin engine airplane disappeared. SAR operations were initiated but abandoned after a month as no trace of the aircraft nor the eight occupants was found.

Crashed in unknown circumstances somewhere in DRC. All 17 occupants were killed.
