The airplane departed Naha Airport at 1309LT on a schedule service (NU611) to Ishigaki Island, carrying 133 passengers and a crew of five. Following an uneventful flight at an altitude of 24,000 feet, the crew was cleared to descend to 8,000 then 3,000 feet on approach. Runway 22 was in use at Ishigaki Airport with wind from 300° at 12 knots and an OAT of 32° C. Landing was completed with crosswinds at a speed of 6 knots above Vref. The aircraft bounced and landed a second time. After touchdown, as the spoilers and reversers seems to be inoperative, the crew decided to shut down both engines, making it impossible to use the anti-skid system. The inner tires on both main gears burst almost simultaneously while at a distance of 125 meters from the runway end. The aircraft skidded to the left, overran and came to rest 145 meters further. All 138 occupants evacuated quickly, among them 49 were injured. Twelve minutes later, one of the engine exploded and caught fire. The airplane was partially destroyed by fire.

JAL Flight 350 took off from Fukuoka (FUK) runway 16 at 07:34 for a regular flight to Tokyo-Haneda (HND). The aircraft climbed to the cruising altitude of FL290. At 08:22 the crew started their descend to FL160. After reaching that altitude, they were cleared to descend down to 3000 feet. The aircraft was cleared for a runway 33R ILS approach and 5° of flaps were selected at 08:35, followed by 25 degrees of flaps one minute later. The landing gear was lowered at 08:39 and 50 degrees of flaps were selected two minutes after that. At 08:42 the aircraft descended through 1000 feet at an airspeed of 135 knots with wind from a direction of 360deg at 20 knots. The co-pilot called out "500 feet" at 08:43:25 but the captain did not make the "stabilized" call-out as specified by JAL operational regulations. The airspeed decreased to 133 knots as the aircraft descended through 300 feet at 08:43:50 and the co-pilot warned the captain that the aircraft was approaching the decision height. At 08:43:56 the radio altimeter warning sounded, followed by the flight engineer calling out "200 feet", which was the decision height, three seconds later . At 08:44:01 the aircraft descended through 164 feet at 130 KIAS. At that moment the captain cancelled autopilot, pushed his controls forward and retarded the throttles to idle. The co-pilot tried to regain control but the aircraft crashed into the shallow water of Tokyo Bay, 510 m short of the runway 33R threshold. The nose and the right hand wing separated from the fuselage. The captain had recently suffered a psychosomatic disorder; preliminary reports suggested that the captain experienced some form of a mental aberration. He had been off duty from November 1980 to November 1981 for these reasons.

After takeoff from Tokyo-Narita Airport while on a cargo flight to Bangkok, the crew reported technical problems with the engine n°3 after the n°6 carbon seal was worn, causing a loss of lubrication. The crew was cleared to return for an emergency landing but weather conditions were marginal and the visibility was limited. Following an approach to runway 16, the airplane was too high and passed over the threshold at a height of 500 feet. The crew continued the descent and the aircraft landed 1,700 meters past the runway threshold and bounced. After reverse thrust was applied on engine n°1, 2 and 4, the airplane veered off runway and struck a manhole, causing the nose gear to collapse. The airplane came to rest and was damaged beyond repair while all three crew members were uninjured. At the time of the accident, wind was from 210 to 350°, 11 knots gusting to 34 knots, visibility 2,200 meters, RVR 900 meters for runway 16 with heavy rain falls and fog.

The twin engine airplane was engaged in a training flight, carrying six crew members. En route, the crew informed ATC about an engine failure when control was lost. The airplane entered a dive and crashed onto a house. A crew member was seriously injured while five other occupants were killed. There were no casualties on ground.

Crashed in unknown circumstances while completing a training flight from Amami-Ōshima Island and Kagoshima. The crew fate remains unknown.

Crashed on takeoff for unknown reasons, killing both occupants.

Crashed in unknown circumstances in a mountainous area located northwest of Takaoka. All 13 crew members were killed.

Upon landing off Cape Ashizuri, the seaplane lost a float and came to rest. There were no casualties.

While approaching Obihiro Airport, the twin engine airplane crashed in unknown circumstances on a lumberyard located few km from the airfield. The occupant's fate remains unknown.

The crew was cleared to takeoff from runway 15L and started the takeoff procedure. After a course of about 1,000 meters, the airplane lifted off prematurely. It banked left, causing the left wing to struck the ground. Out of control, the airplane landed back onto the runway then went out of control. It veered off runway to the left and while contacting soft ground, all landing gear were torn off as well as all four engines. The airplane slid for about 800 meters before coming to rest. All 140 occupants were evacuated, three of them were injured. The aircraft was written off.
