Safety history

March 24, 1991AccidentHull loss
During the takeoff roll on runway 35, the tyre on the right main gear burst. The crew aborted the takeoff and started an emergency braking procedure. Unable to stop within the remaining distance, the aircraft overran and came to rest. All eight occupants escaped uninjured while the aircraft was damaged beyond repair.

The exact cause of the failure of the right main tyre remains unknown. However, it was reported that the crew's decision to abort the takeoff procedure was taken too late and he failed to use all available braking systems, which was considered as contributing factors. Full accident record
