Negative from FNG Archive. While operating a cargo flight from Frankfurt to Stuttgart in poor weather fog persisted at the destination in combination with partly unservicable approach lights and an unreliable glide slope. Letting down below minima the aircraft struck ground shortly before and north of the threshold tearing off the complete undercarriage and #3 engine. Surprisingly a go around could be initiated and the flight was diverted to Nuremberg were a belly landing was carried out on the foamed runway. Subsequently scrapped. Note escape rope from cockpit window and feathered #2 engine.

Operated on lease by Fleming International
