Crashed into jungle 15km from its destination at Cruzeiro del Sol at night, possibly because of distraction from false alarms indicating cabin fire. Aircraft failed to rotate for take-off, possibly owing to overloading and a forward centre of gravity. It ran fast off the end of the runway, hitting buildings and killing about 30 people on the ground. There were 16 non-ticketed passengers on board this service, manifested as a cargo flight, and a large "crew", as well as the cargo of tea. Hit high ground 26km south-east of Skopje. The weather was stormy and had caused at least one other aircraft to divert. Hit high ground in bad weather en route Santa Ana-La Paz. Crashed at night en route Curacao-Miami in area of high thunderstorm activity. Engine failure after take-off for cargo flight to Mitu. The No 3 engine separated, probably because of fatigue or corrosion in one of the wing-pylon fuse pins, which caused it to fracture. While separating, the engine hit the No 4 engine, breaking it off also. While trying to return to land, the captain lost control of the aircraft, which crashed into a block of flats killing many people on the ground. 30 FLIGHT INTERNATIONAL 27 January - 2 February, 1993
