Dramatic takeoff of a Fokker 100 due to ice buildup on wings
The Fokker 100 operated by Bek Air took off from Almaty, Kazakhstan, with 98 people onboard. But ice had built up on the wings during the overnight stop: the airplane's performances were degraded. The Fokker 100 lifted off and reached a height of 6 meters before falling to the ground. The aircraft rebounded two more times before finally violently hitting the ground and crashing into a building. 98 people were on board. 12 people, including the captain, were killed.
