Incidents

  • On December 28, 1962, with one from Southend coming ATL-98 Aviation Traders of Channel Air Bridge ( air vehicle registration G-ARSF ) carried out in poor visibility and snowfall a visual approach to the airport Rotterdam. Due to an approach that was too steep, the aircraft collided 240 meters from the runway with a two-meter-high dam, jumped up again and then hit again very violently 70 meters further. The right wing tore off, whereupon the machine turned to the right on its back and slid another 200 meters. The captain was killed, the other three crew members survived, as did the 14 passengers.
