Safety record

Accident & incident history

2024-08-17 Accident · Istanbul, OF Damage: Substantial NTSB · DCA24LA293
Reported aircraft: Boeing 747-4HQF
Probable cause: The fatigue failure of multiple hinge ribs associated with the right outboard aileron, which resulted in abnormal aileron movement and airframe vibration. Contributing to the failure was the mis-rigged condition of the right outboard aileron, which increased operational loads on the hinge fittings during cruise flight.
