While on a bombing mission over the Taechon Airport in North Korea, the bomber was attacked by 2 or 3 MiG's at 1517LT. The engine number one failed and the hydraulic system went out. The pilot was able to leave the combat area but eventually, all 12 crew members abandoned the aircraft that crashed into the Yellow Sea. The airplane was lost while all 12 occupants were rescued. Two of them were wounded.

At liftoff, the four engine aircraft stalled and crashed in flames on the edge of the runway. Four crew members were killed while two others were injured.

Crashed on landing and was destroyed by fire. All three crew members were injured.

An engine caught fire in flight and as the crew was unable to extinguish the fire, he decided to bail out and abandon the aircraft that crashed into the Everglades National Park, about 18 miles northwest of Miami. The aircraft was destroyed by impact forces and all five occupants were rescued 12 hours later.

The four engine aircraft left Frankfurt-Main Airport at 0936LT on October 14 bound for Lajes where it landed at 1603LT. After refueling, the airplane left Lajes at 1851LT bound for Westover AFB, Massachusetts. About an hour later, the crew informed ground about technical problems with radio compas and radio altimeters and decided to return to Lajes where it landed safely at 2019LT. According to duty time and rest time, the crew decided to pass the overnight in Lajes and took off on October 15 at 0843LT bound for the US. As the aircraft failed to arrive, SAR operations were conducted but were eventually suspended few days later as no trace of the aircraft nor the crew was found.

Following a combat mission on the Korean War front, the aircraft was returning to Yokota AFB in Tokyo with one engine inoperative. On final approach, the airplane was unstable and the pilot-in-command decided to make a go around when the aircraft stalled and crashed few dozen yards short of runway threshold. The aircraft was destroyed upon impact and nine crew members were killed, five others were injured.

The crew was forced to attempt an emergency landing due to a fuel exhaustion. There were no casualties.
