Honduras

The three engine airplane was descending to La Ceiba when the crew encountered an unexpected situation and was forced to attempt an emergency landing. The airplane crash landed in Jutiapa, some 30 km east of La Ceiba, bursting into flames. All 14 occupants were rescued, among them seven were injured. The aircraft was destroyed by fire.

Shortly after takeoff from Tegucigalpa-Toncontin Airport, while in initial climb, the three engine airplane collided with power lines, stalled and crashed in a ravine located about 300 metres past the runway end. An Italian passenger tried to escape and jumped out the cabin but fall in the ravine with his kid in his arms. The father was killed and his kid was injured. All 10 other occupants escaped uninjured and the aircraft was damaged beyond repair. It is believed that the takeoff was initiated with a tailwind component and the left main wheel or the left wing impacted an electric power line during initial climb. Some debris such as an engine (third image) were found 83 years later by a depth of 65 feet.
