All 69 people aboard the aircraft were killed in the crash. At the time, the accident was the worst in the history of Indonesia; it is today the ninth worst aviation accident in Indonesian history. It remains the third worst Vickers Viscount accident.[1] AccidentThe aircraft was flying between Kemayoran Airport in Jakarta, Indonesia, and Tabing Airport, the former airport of Padang, Indonesia.[1] Five minutes before it was scheduled to arrive at Padang, air traffic controllers lost radio contact with the flight.[3] Controllers at Sultan Mahmud Badaruddin II Airport, Palembang, Sumatra, reported the aircraft issued a distress signal. The flight crew reportedly said they could not land at Padang because of poor weather and bad visibility.[1] The aircraft subsequently crashed into the Indian Ocean,[2] killing all 62 passengers and seven crew aboard the aircraft.[3] Passengers and crewAll the passengers aboard the aircraft were Indonesian nationals, except for a German doctor and his wife, and a British helicopter pilot who was employed in Indonesia. Eight children were also aboard the flight.[3]
AftermathThree days after the accident pieces of the wreckage were found floating 75 miles off Sumatra, Indonesia. Fisherman found seats of the aircraft between the Beringin and Katang-Katang islands. An Indonesian Navy boat also recovered clothes and uninflated life rafts.[4] See also{{Portal|Aviation|Indonesia}}
