Italy

Enroute, the aircraft suffered an engine failure and the crew attempted to make an emergency landing. The aircraft came to rest in a prairie located 8 km west of Trigno. There were no casualties.

On touchdown, a tyre burst. The aircraft swung and went out of control, lost its undercarriage and came to rest. There were no casualties but the aircraft was damaged beyond repair.

On touchdown, the undercarriage failed. The aircraft skidded on its belly and came to rest. There were no casualties but the aircraft was damaged beyond repair.

While flying at cruising level off the Italian coast in poor weather conditions and under instrument flight rules, a fire erupted in the cockpit, on the left side of the captain. The crew tried to extinguish the fire but without success. The fire quickly spread and in such conditions, the crew decided to take refuge in the main cabin and helped the rest of the passengers to put their parachute in case they should abandon the aircraft. Unfortunately, this took time as the passengers did not received any preflight instruction about how to use a parachute. Shortly later, the aircraft went out of control and in fire, dove into the sea and crashed into the Gulf of Salerno, off Amalfi. On site, rescuers were able to evacuate eight people who survived: 4 passengers and all 4 crew members that were able to bail out before the crash. Unfortunately, all 30 other occupants were killed and the aircraft disintegrated on impact.

The aircraft was on its way from England to South Africa with a crew of four and eight passengers, all South African Army Officers returning home. While cruising by night, both left engines stopped simultaneously. The crew was unable to restart the engine and the captain decided to reduce his altitude in an attempt to make an emergency landing. Unfortunately, no suitable terrain was available around his position. Flying at low height, the aircraft hit the ground and crashed in flames in a field. Eleven occupants were killed while the captain was the only survivor.

Enroute, the crew encountered unknown technical problems and was forced to make an emergency landing. The aircraft crash landed in a field in Anzio and was damaged beyond repair. There were no casualties.

During the initial climb, both engines lost power simultaneously. The aircraft stalled, lost height, hit trees and crashed in a wooded area located about 1,5 km south of Jesi. All four occupants were slightly injured while the aircraft was written off.

Enroute, while cruising along the Italian shore, the crew encountered poor weather with severe icing conditions and told ATC he wanted to divert to Rome Airport. Later, while in poor visibility due to clouds, the aircraft hit the slope of Monti della Meta located few km northeast of the Picinisco village. SAR operations were conducted but eventually suspended few days later as no trace of the aircraft nor the crew was found. The wreckage was located by walkers in May 1946. It is believed that the crew misjudged the icing severity and the flight was not properly prepared. Heavy cumulus were present from 1,200 up to 5,000 meters.

About an hour prior to his scheduled arrival time in Naples, the crew encountered poor weather conditions with low visibility due to clouds. The radio navigator informed ground that he lost his orientation and he was unable to locate his position. The aircraft then deviated from the prescribed flight path by about 300 km to the southwest. Later, the aircraft hit the slope of a mountain located 800 meters from the airport of Boccadifalco, west of Palermo. A passenger survived and was evacuated to a local hospital while 24 other occupants were killed. At the time of the accident, there were strato-cumulus at an altitude of 600 meters, fracto-cumulus at an altitude of 300 meters and 5 km visibility.

Enroute, the aircraft hit the slope of a mountain located near Cuneo, killing all 15 occupants.
