Incident
After Leaving Amazia for a stopover at JFK, Prior to the flight, the plane flew to Penang (Formerly, Now JFK) from Roghija as a scheduled flight. After a turnaround, the plane went to another scheduled flight to Roghija. The aircraft took off on 10:32 PM. Due to heavy fog and rain, the airport decided to divert other flights to other airports. Zero Airlines Flight 250 was the last plane to take off, which meant that the airport closed until the rain and fog dispersed. The plane crash was caused by an engine failure. Just seven years ago, the plane's engine started to show signs of tear and wear.
While ascending, the plane headed for Seoul by accident. The ATC was concerned by the flight path, and told the flight to ascend more and go to a different direction, the cockpit crew however confirmed to return to JFK Internasional Airport, but it was too late as after the plane rolled the gears out and turned right back to the airports approach, the front left gear had hit the mountain, the gear then hit the planes third engine, which both parts fell off the plane, the right wing was already highly exposed to collapsing, but disaster struck.
At 10:47, the aircraft was almost exiting the Mountains, but the right wing had finally collapsed due to wear and tear, and the plane slammed into the Mountains. Most people died by the sheer force of debris that caused the aircraft to collapse, and it was reported that inside the aircraft, debris of luggage, bodies, and other items flew around before crashing onto the mountain. There were only seven survivors from several sections on the plane had lived; most were from the upper deck.
Aftermath
After the crash, Zero Air Lines was still operating as normal. They felt like their Other Roeing 747s are stable.
On August 12th, 1987, a memorial was erected for the crash.
