Safety history
- February 21, 1975Accident
After touchdown, the airplane ground looped due to brake failure. Both propeller detached and the airplane came to rest with its left main gear partially torn off. Both pilots Ed Paintin and Frank Wingrove were uninjured while the flight engineer John Mitchell was slightly wounded. The aircraft was trucked to Salisbury for repair but was later considered as written off. Probable cause (official findings): Failure of the brake systems upon landing.
