Thailand

Following an uneventful flight from Bombay, the crew started the descent to Bangkok-Don Mueang Airport by night. On approach, the pilot reported runway in sight and was cleared to land on runway 21L. On short final, he failed to realize his altitude was too low when the four engine airplane struck the roof of a building and crashed in flames on a spinning factory located 2 km short of runway. The aircraft and several buildings were killed. All 53 occupants on board the B707 were killed as well as 20 people working in the factory. At the time of the accident, the visibility was estimated to be 4 km.

After takeoff, the airplane struck trees just past the runway end. The captain decided to return for a safe landing. There were no injuries among the occupants but the aircraft was considered as damaged beyond repair.

Crashed upon landing at U-Tapao NAS while completing a flight from Saigon. The aircraft was destroyed but there were no casualties.

The airplane was descending to Trat when it crashed under unknown circumstances into the sea, killing all four occupants. Apparently, they escaped Cambodia.

Crashed in unknown circumstances while on approach to Umphang Airstrip. All five occupants were killed.

The crew (a Thai pilot under supervision and a US instructor) departed Lop Buri AFB for a local training mission. In unknown circumstances, the single engine airplane went out of control and crashed in a rice paddy field located in Khok Krathiam, few km west of the airbase. Both occupants were killed.

The airplane was engaged in the Linebacker II mission over North Vietnam, carrying six crew members from U-Tapao NAS. While overflying the Hanoi area, the aircraft was hit by a SA-2 surface-to-air missile. The crew decided to leave the target area and to return to U-Tapao NAS for an emergency landing. As the four engines on the left side were out of service, the crew decided to bail out and abandoned the aircraft that crashed in an isolated area. All six crew were found alive.

The airplane was engaged in the Linebacker II mission over North Vietnam, carrying six crew members from U-Tapao NAS. While overflying the Hanoi area, the aircraft was hit by a SA-2 surface-to-air missile. The crew decided to leave the target area and to return to U-Tapao NAS for an emergency landing. As the air gunner was wounded, the captain refused to bail out. On approach, as four engines were out of service on the same side, he was forced to initiate a go-around when control was lost. The airplane crashed near the airbase and was destroyed. Four crew members were killed while two others survived.
