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 performing a flyby of nearby event, the pilot of the vintage amphibious airplane flew the airplane out over a lake near the seabase. While maneuvering, he attempted to contact people on the ground utilizing the common traffic advisory frequency he had heard people using earlier in the week. After failing to reach anyone, the pilot set the flight controls for a slow descent. Then he used his mobile phone to send a text message asking a friend for the radio frequency in use, and upon reply, changed the frequency. After setting the phone down, the pilot looked up as the airplane impacted the surface of the lake. The airplane sustained substantial damage to the front fuselage and hull, left wing, and both sponsons. The pilot reported that there were no preaccident mechanical malfunctions or failures with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation.
