Aerosucre Boeing 727 Faces Two Incidents in One Week

A Boeing 727-227(F) operated by Aerosucre Colombia, registration HK-5216, experienced two separate incidents in December 2025. No injuries were reported in either event.

First Incident – 6 December 2025

On 6 December 2025, flight A42170 took off from runway 14R at Bogotá-Eldorado Airport (BOG). Shortly after departure, the aircraft suffered an electrical failure and the transponder stopped working.

The crew decided to return and made a safe emergency landing on runway 14L.

The airplane was not damaged, and all crew members were safe.

Weather conditions at the time showed light showers in the area but visibility remained good.

Second Incident – 12 December 2025

Six days later, on 12 December 2025, the same aircraft was involved in another event at Ernesto Cortissoz International Airport (BAQ).

Flight KRE140 was landing when the left main landing gear collapsed. The aircraft slid on the runway and the left wing was heavily damaged.

Emergency services responded quickly, and again, no injuries were reported.

Weather during the landing was calm with clear visibility (CAVOK).

Authorities are investigating both events. The aircraft, built in 1980, remains grounded until further inspection and repair.

Aviation Safety Analysis: Accidents, Fatalities, Nature and Causes (2019 - 2024)

This report presents an in-depth analysis of aviation accidents and fatalities over the past year (2019 - 2024), based on data driven from the Aviation Safety Network’s global accident database. It provides a comprehensive breakdown of incidents by flight nature, phase of flight, accident location, and primary causes. The objective is to identify key trends and contributing factors, offering valuable insights into aviation safety and risk mitigation. The analysis is structured around five key breakdowns: Aircraft Type – Categorizing accidents by aircraft model (Jet, Piston, Turboprop). Fatal vs. Non-Fatal – Differentiating incidents based on severity and casualty levels. Land vs. Water Accidents – Identifying accident locations and environmental factors. Airliner vs. Corporate Jet – Comparing accident data across commercial and private aviation sectors. Incident Breakdown: Events & Fatalities – Total number of accidents ( 907 ) and associated fatalities ( 1304 ). Ground Fatali...

Piper PA-38 Accident at Saldanha Vredenburg Airfield

Saldanha, Western Cape – On Sunday, December 15, 2024, a Piper PA-38-112 Tomahawk was involved in an accident at Saldanha Vredenburg Airfield (FASD). The incident occurred during a training session when the aircraft attempted a downwind landing on runway 02. The plane lost control and overturned near the runway, sustaining substantial damage. The sole occupant, a student pilot, was fortunate to escape with moderate injuries. No other fatalities or injuries were reported. A downwind landing occurs when an aircraft lands with the wind blowing from behind it, in the same direction it is traveling. This situation is generally avoided in aviation because it increases the aircraft’s ground speed during landing, which can: Increase the landing distance : Higher ground speed requires more runway to come to a complete stop. Compromise control : The faster ground speed can make it harder to maintain directional control during touchdown and rollout. Stress the aircraft : The increased speed may s...
