Aircraft
The aircraft involved was a Yakovlev Yak-42D with registration B-2755 (factory no. 4520422116644, serial no. 14-02). The aircraft was released by the Saratov Aviation Plant on January 2, 1992 and was delivered to China General Aviation in the same month.[2]
Crash
Flight GP7552 was a passenger flight from Nanking to Xiamen. There were 116 passengers and 10 crew members. At about 3:05 pm the aircraft headed for the runway 06 and, after a minute delay, started its take-off roll. The Yak-42 started to lift off the ground and began to climb, however the aircraft lost control and slammed back down onto the runway. The aircraft then exited the runway, and continued rolling for on the ground 420–600 metres (1,380–1,970 ft). The aircraft then crashed into a two-meter (6.6-foot) fence and exploded. The fuselage broke into three parts, after which a post-crash fire erupted. Part of the wreckage fell into a nearby pond. 8 of the 10 crew members and 100 of the 116 passengers died.[note 1][1][3][4]
Investigation
Investigators determined the cause of the crash was an improper horizontal stabilizer setting.
