Taiwan C-130 Crash 1965 in C-130 Historical Posted May 11, 2021 I was at CCKAB 314th OMS as CC 62-1817 from May 69 - June 70. The only incident I am aware of was Acft. 62-1818 was shooting T-&-G's at a little airstrip from CCK when they had a #2 engine fire. On board, pilot, IP, FE, IFE, Nav, Loadmaster and Instructor Loadmaster. Crashed Killing all on board. Not sure of exact date, late 69 early 70. My best friend had just performed Maint on Stab Trim sys and was interrigated intensley for failure to follow MM proceedures. After Flight Recorder review it was determined to be Pilot error. Just after lift off climbed to approx 1000' rolled into a left bank, Left wing stalled, rolled over and nosed in. While all were discussing what to do about fire, no one was assigned to fly the aircraft. Don't know if this helps but only incident I am aware of on Tiawan.
