The airplane departed San José del Cabo-Los Cabos Airport runway 16 at 1818LT on a taxi flight to Austin-Bergstrom, TX, carrying four passengers and two pilots. It climbed to FL430 and proceeded to the northeast when, about an hour into the flight, the crew decided to divert to Laredo Airport. After being cleared for an approach to runway 36L, the crew attempted an emergency landing on the Bob Bullock Loop 20 Highway, about 4 km south-southeast of the airport. After landing at night, the airplane hit a concrete berm and crashed. It broke in two and the front part of the fuselage caught fire. A passenger was killed while five other occupants were injured. According to the Laredo Airport Director, the crew reported low fuel and a power outage.

After takeoff from Tampa North Aero Park Runway 32, the twin engine airplane initiated a left turn and climbed to an altitude of about 200 feet when control was lost.

The airplane was destroyed by a post crash fire and the pilot, sole on board, was killed.

The single engine airplane apparently departed Itápolis in the morning and made stops in Forquilhinha and Santa Catarina before landing in Capão de Canoa to pick two passengers who need to be flown to Campo de Marte, São Paulo.

The twin engine airplane departed Miami-Executive Airport (Kendall Tamiami) at 0628LT on a flight to Kennesaw-Cobb County-McCollum Airport, Georgia. Approaching Atlanta control area, the pilot declared an emergency and requested a clearance to land at the nearest airport. Vectored to Atlanta-DeKalb-Peachtree, the pilot modified his route and completed a left hand circuit. On final approach to runway 21L, the airplane went out of control and crashed at Homeland Drive, in a residential area located in Doraville, about 5 km north northeast of the airport. Both occupants were injured and the airplane was destroyed.

On final approach to Toluca-Licenciado Adolfo López Mateos Airport Runway 33, the crew was cleared to land when he informed ATC he would initiate a go around procedure.

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.

The twin engine airplane departed Perot Field Fort Worth Alliance Airport Runway 16L at 1201LT on a training flight with two pilots on board. After completing several circuits over Nocona and Bowie Airfields, the crew returned to Fort Worth. While cruising at an altitude of 1,000 feet in a left hand turn, the airplane entered an uncontrolled descent and crashed in a trailer parking located about 2,5 km north of Hicks Airfield, bursting into flames. Both occupants were killed.

While on an ambulance flight from Puerto Montt to Santiago, the crew encountered an unexpected situation and was forced to attempt an emergency landing. In the early morning, the twin engine airplane collided with a fence and crashed in a private garden located in Olivar, some 93 km south of Santiago-Arturo Merino Benitez Airport. All four occupants were evacuated with various injuries and the airplane was damaged beyond repair.

The airplane departed Nairobi-Wilson Airport Runway 14 at 1417LT on an ambulance flight to Hargeisa, Somalia. On board were two medical crew and two pilots. About three minutes after takeoff, while climbing, the airplane entered an uncontrolled descent and crashed in the district of Mwihoko, some 22 km northeast of Wilson Airport. The airplane disintegrated on impact and all four occupants were killed as well as two people on the ground.

The airplane, a Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner, flight AI171, departed Ahmedabad-Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport on a regular schedule service to London-Gatwick, carrying 230 passengers and 12 crew members. After takeoff from runway 23, the airplane climbed to an altitude of 625 feet with the undercarriage still down. Then it started to descend, first in a relative flat attitude, then nosed up (increasing the angle of attack) until it collided with several residential buildings located near Ghoda Camp Road, some 1,500 metres from the runway end, bursting into flames. The airplane was totally destroyed by impact forces and a post crash fire. Weather conditions at the time of the accident were considered as good. It appears that the crew issued a mayday call shortly after liftoff. Few hours after the crash, local authorities confirmed that one passenger survived while 241 other occupants were killed as well as 19 people on the ground. 67 other people on the ground were injured. Runway 23 is 3'600 metres long and it seems that the rotation was completed very late. An analysis of the Airport CCTV shows that the airplane ceased to climb about 12 seconds after rotation, and that the final impact occurred some 30 seconds after liftoff. It appears that the RAM Air Turbine (RAT) was deployed at the time of the accident, suggesting issues with engines.
