Safety history

May 1, 1948AccidentHull loss
The crew was engaged in a local training flight on this brand new aircraft that was delivered to KLM last April 22. After several touch and goes completed without any issues, the instructor decided to perform a takeoff with the engine number one voluntarily inoperative.
Douglas DC-6
It is possible that the accident may have been caused by a fault in the time position of the screw system of the engine number one, whereby the blade angle of this screw was incorrect. Unfortunately, this could not be demonstrated conclusively. Full accident record
