Cargo

The airplane departed Barranquilla-Ernesto Cortissoz Airport Runway 05 at 0227LT on a cargo service (flight KRE141) to Bogotá. About 15 minutes into the flight, bound to the south at an altitude of 15,000 feet, the crew initiated a 180 turn after he informed ATC about technical problems with the landing gear. The crew followed several circuits southwest of the airport then completed a low pass over the runway at a height of about 250 feet. Following this maneuver, the airplane continued to climb and turn to the left before heading to the south. The airplane landed on runway 05 at 0340LT. After touchdown, the left main gar collapsed, causing the left wing to struck the ground, and the airplane slid for few hundred metres before coming to rest at 0341LT. All occupants escaped uninjured.

The twin engine airplane departed Juba Airport on a cargo flight to Leer, carrying three crew members and humanitarian food assistance from Samaritan’s Purse to flood-affected communities in Southern Unity State. While approaching the destination, it crashed in unknown circumstances 20 km north of Leer Airfield and was destroyed. All three occupants were killed.

The twin engine airplane departed Fort Lauderdale-Executive Airport Runway 27 at 1014LT on a cargo flight to Montego Bay, carrying one passenger and one pilot. The goal of the flight was to deliver first aid to the victims of the recent hurricane 'Melissa'. After departure, the pilot completed a turn to the right and climbed to the altitude of 4,000 feet. While in a right hand turn, the airplane entered an uncontrolled descent and crashed in a pond located in a residential area in Coral Springs, some 11 km north northwest from the departure airport. The airplane was destroyed and both occupants were killed.

The airplane departed Louisville-Muhammad Ali Intl Airport on a cargo service to Honolulu-Daniel K. Inouye Intl Airport with a crew of three on board. During the takeoff roll on runway 17R, the pilot-in-command started the rotation while the left engine was on fire. The airplane was able to take off but failed to gain sufficient altitude and remained in a nose-up attitude at a maximum height of about 30 feet. It continued in such configuration above the runway at a speed of about 183 knots. After passing over runway 35L threshold, it rolled to the left, impacted an industrial building and crashed left wing first onto several buildings and vehicles located in the industrial area of Knopp, coming to rest about one km from the runway end, bursting into flames. Debris scattered for about 800 metres. The airplane was totally destroyed by impact forces and a post crash fire. All three crew members were killed as well as 11 people on the ground. It is also reported that 23 people on the ground were injured, two seriously. It appears that the left engine (n°1) and its pylon separated from the wing structure after rotation, and was found standing in a grassy area along the left side of runway 17R. Multiple pieces of engine fan blades were found on runway 17R along with the main component of the left engine n°1. Both FDR and CVR were found with limited fire damage and transferred to NTSB lab for analyzing. The Flight Data Recorder had around 63 hours of data covering 24 flights, including the accident sequence. The Cockpit Voice Recorder contained 124 minutes of audio, including the the accident sequence. Analysis are focused on the catastrophic failure of the engine n°1 and the loss of power on engine n°2 resulting from debris ingestion.

Upon landing at night on runway 04 at Nyala Airport, the airplane was shot down by Sudan Armed Forces. The airplane veered off runway to the left and crashed in a ditch located 900 metres past the runway threshold, bursting into flames. The airplane was totally destroyed and all 19 occupants were killed, among them 17 members of the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) including Abdul Rahim Wad Abuk, uncle of Hemedti, commander of the RSF. Sudan Government reported the airplane was shot down because suspected of carrying weapons and army equipment on behalf of the rebels.

The airplane departed Dubai-Al Maktoum International Airport on a cargo service to Hong Kong on behalf of Emirates Sky Cargo (flight EK9788) with four crew members on board. After landing on runway 07L at Hong Kong-Chek Lap Kok Airport, the crew initiated the braking procedure. While decelerating to a speed of about 100 knots, the airplane veered off runway to the left, struck a ground service vehicle located on the perimeter road, went through the perimeter fence and plunged into the sea at a speed of 60 knots, coming to rest broken in two. All four crew members were rescued while both employees in the ground vehicle were killed. Preliminary data suggest that the engine n°4 was still accelerating to 106% N1 forward thrust after all selected thrust reversers were stowed. Number 1, 2 and 3 engine thrust levers were closed with reverse thrust levers selected to maximum while the n°4 engine reverse thrust lever was fully forward.

After landing on runway 25 at Ilaga-Aminggaru Airport, the single engine airplane was unable to stop within the remaining distance. It overran by few metres, veered to the right and collided with a wooden guard post before coming to rest against the perimeter fence, bursting into flames. Both crew members, a pilot and a technician, escaped with minor injuries before the airplane would be totally destroyed by fire. The crew completed a cargo flight from Timika-Moses Kilangin Airport.

Parked on the main tarmac at Nyala Airport, the airplane was shot down by the Sudanese Army and exploded. It was totally destroyed and all 20 occupants (90 from other sources) were killed, two pilots and 18 military personnel from the UAE.
