On final approach, the four engine aircraft was too low and struck a sea wall, causing the right main gear to be sheared off. The airplane crash landed on its belly and came to rest. All seven crew members were unhurt while the aircraft was damaged beyond repair. This photo was added on 3 July 2025, and has since been viewed 116 times. |
