Damaged beyond repair at Mogadishu, Somalia, 8 Mar 2007 when it landed on fire having been hit by an RPG fired by rebels (in a boat) whilst on approach. Non-damaged parts were cannibalized and a company aircraft EW-78849 was sent to retrieve them. When it departed Mogadishu 23 Mar 2007 it too was hit by a missile and crashed, killing all 11 on board.
