The crew departed Madrid-Torrejón AFB on a training flight to Valladolid-Villanubla Airport. While descending to Valladolid Airport, the twin engine aircraft struck the slope of a hill located near La Cistérniga, about 20 km southeast of Villanubla Airport. All three crew members were killed.

Few minutes after a night takeoff from Barcelona Airport, en route to Brussels, the copilot informed ATC about technical problems and was cleared to return for an emergency landing. After been cleared for an approach to runway 07, the crew descended to 6,000 feet and 3,000 feet successively. At 0000:15 seconds, the aircraft passed over the outer marker at an altitude of 1,500 feet and a speed of 170 knots. At a distance of six km from the runway threshold, the aircraft started to deviate from the approach path to the right and one minute later, it struck the ground at a speed of 130 knots, crashing in a palmgrove located 3,2 km short of runway and bursting into flames. The aircraft was destroyed by a post crash fire and both pilots were killed.

While completing a training flight, the twin engine aircraft crashed in unknown circumstances in a snow covered and wooded area located in the Los Hoyos Mountain Range. The wreckage was found near Navafría and all five occupants were killed.

Following an uneventful charter flight from Chailley, the aircraft landed on runway 33 at 1942LT with two passengers and two pilots on board. Just behind the Falcon 10 landed on same runway 33 a Boeing 727-223 registered EI-HCD and operated by Hunting Cargo Airlines. With four people on board, the B727 completed a cargo flight from Porto. Both aircraft vacated the runway at taxiway K-1 but the Falcon 10 used a taxiway parallel to the one which EI-HCD was using while heading for the apron. At the intersection of taxiways A-8 and M-8 both aircraft collided. While the B727 suffered minor damages, the Falcon 10 was damaged beyond repair and its four occupants escaped uninjured, among them the French actor Gérard Depardieu.

Shortly after takeoff from Madrid-Barajas Airport, while climbing, the crew lost control of the aircraft that crashed near a warehouse located in Paracuellos del Jarama, about 3 km east of the airport. The aircraft was destroyed and both pilots were seriously injured.

The crew was completing a local training mission at Vitoria Airport. In good weather conditions, the crew was approaching the airport in a flapless configuration when an alarm sounded in the cockpit. The crew turned off the circuit breaker so the alarm stopped. The aircraft landed on its belly and slid for few dozen metres before coming to rest. All four occupants escaped uninjured and the aircraft was damaged beyond repair.

The twin engine aircraft departed Madrid-Barajas Airport at 0020LT on a charter flight to Málaga, carrying three passengers and one pilot. After descending from FL080, the pilot was cleared to initiate a visual approach in preparation for a landing at Málaga-Pablo Ruiz Picasso Runway 14. After passing the altitude of 3,000 feet, about 12 NM north of Málaga VOR, the pilot started a turn to the left when the aircraft struck the slope of a rocky mountain (850 metres high) located near Villanueva del Rosario. The aircraft disintegrated on impact and all four occupants were killed. The wreckage was found few metres below the summit. At the time of the accident, the visibility was good with few clouds (1-4 octas) at 1,800 feet.

Operated by Heliservicio on behalf of the Civil Security of Spain, the aircraft was leased from Antonov Design Bureau. That day, the crew was engaged in a fire fighting mission in the region of Banyeres de Mariola, in the Sierra de Mariola, about 90 km south of Valencia. The crew approached the fire zone at a too low altitude, dropped the water load too late, causing the aircraft to stall while trying to 'hop' over a mountain. The aircraft struck the ground and crashed some 10 metres below the summit. A crew member was seriously injured while five other occupants were killed.

Seven minutes after takeoff from Seville-San Pablo Airport, while climbing, the crew reported technical problems and elected to return. Few minutes later, the situation worsened, the crew declared an emergency and started a rapid descent. The aircraft landed on runway 27 at an excessive speed. Upon touchdown, the right main gear collapsed. The aircraft rolled for about 2 km then veered off runway to the right and came to rest. All 10 occupants escaped uninjured while the aircraft was damaged beyond repair.

On final approach to Vigo Airport runway 20, the crew encountered foggy conditions with a visibility limited to 1,500 metres. The aircraft descended below the glide and the left main gear struck an element of the approach light system located 100 metres short of runway threshold. The aircraft then landed 50 metres short of runway, causing both main landing gear to collapse. The aircraft slid on its belly for about 580 metres before coming to rest, bursting into flames. All 116 occupants were rescued, among them 21 were injured. The aircraft was destroyed.
