Lubumbashi

Shortly after takeoff from Kamina Airport, while in initial climb, the twin engine aircraft stalled and crashed in a swampy area. A parliamentary member of the DRC government was killed while all other occupants escaped with various injuries.

During the takeoff roll at Lubumbashi-Luano Airport, a deflector located on the right main gear failed. The crew continued the takeoff procedure and after liftoff, the right main gear could not be raised in its wheel well. Initially, the crew decided to continue to Kinshasa in a 'gear down' configuration but eventually decided to return to Lubumbashi for a safe landing. After touchdown, the aircraft deviated to the right of the runway centerline then veered off runway and came to rest in a ditch. All three crew members escaped uninjured while the aircraft was damaged beyond repair.

On final approach to Lubumbashi Airport while on a cargo flight from Ostende, the pilot-in-command failed to realize his altitude was too low when the airplane struck a 30 metres high tree with its right wing. Upon impact, the right wing was partially torn off. The airplane lost height and crashed few hundred metres short of runway threshold. All six occupants were killed.
