Accidents and incidents

On October 12, 2011, a Nationale Regionale Transport EMB-120, registration ZS-PYO, performing a charter flight from Libreville to Port-Gentil, overran the end of runway 21, and came to a stop with the nose gear intact but with both main gear struts bent backwards, causing the engines to "pitch down" together with the wings. A few passengers sustained minor injuries, but the aircraft was damaged beyond repair and was written off.
