This aircraft sustained substantial damage in a runway excursion accident at Port-au-Prince Airport (PAP), Haiti. There were no injuries.
There were 12 crew members and 131 passengers on board, who were part of the Brazilian peacekeeping mission in Haiti.
Upon takeoff an engine caught fire and the takeoff was aborted. The airplane veered into the grass. There were burn marks visible on the plane, and its front landing-gear had snapped of. (Aviation Herald)
