The aircraft was on a cargo flight from Guangzhou, China to Narita
Airport near Tokyo, Japan. The aircraft bounced on landing, and
contacted the runway a second time nose wheel first. The plane then
rolled to the left, hit the runway with its left horizontal
stabilizer and wing, caught fire and rolled over onto its back,
coming to rest off the left side of the runway. Both crew members
were killed. This was the first fatal accident at Narita Airport
since it opened in 1978.
