Few minutes after its takeoff from Chambéry Airport, while climbing at an altitude of 1,050 meters, the twin engine aircraft hit the slope of the Dent du Chat located less than 5 km west of the airport. The aircraft was destroyed by impact forces and all five crew members were killed.

The airplane departed Lyon-Bron Airport on a training mission, carrying three pilots and one radio operator. After a flight of 40 minutes over the Alps, the crew passed over Chindrieux and Châtillon then the pilot made a low pass over the Lac du Bourget when the left wing tip struck the water surface and the airplane crashed into the lake. Two crew members were killed and two others were injured. In December 1993, the wreckage was localized at a depth of 112 metres.

The aircraft left RAF Scampton at 1803LT on February 4 on a bombing mission over Turin. While approaching the Alps by night and very poor weather conditions, the aircraft hit the Belleface face located in the massif of La Pointe de La Terrasse, near Bourg-Saint-Maurice. 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 few months later in an mountainous and isolated area.
