Accidents and incidents

[edit]
  • On August 24, 2023, Air Antilles flight 3S722 (operated by a DHC-6-400 Twin Otter registered F-OMYS) off runway 28 at the Saint Barthélemy airport moments after touchdown. The Twin Otter struck a parked and unoccupied helicopter that had landed 30 minutes prior. While none of the six on board were injured, the Twin Otter was seriously damaged, the high-speed impact caused substantial damage to both aircraft.[6] The pilots blamed the loss of directional control on a steering issue. Furthermore, video evidence shows the aircraft having steering difficulties while taxiing at Saint Barth only ten days prior to the crash.[7] Air Antilles was temporarily suspended from flying to Saint Barth following the accident.[8]
