The four engine airplane departed Luqa on a flight to England with an intermediate stop in Gibraltar. On board were various crew of RCAF, RAF and RAAF as well as few civilians including military wives and two children. Upon arrival at Gibraltar-North Front Airport, the crew encountered poor weather conditions with thunderstorm activity. It is believed that the airplane overshot the runway so the captain decided to go around when the aircraft stalled and crashed into the sea. Fourteen people, including eight civilians (among them two children) were killed and 26 other people were rescued, among them few were injured.
