Boeing 737 Crashes Just After Takeoff | Cubana Flight 972

Cubana de Aviación Flight 972 was a scheduled domestic flight from José Martí International Airport, Havana, Cuba, to Frank País Airport in Holguín, Cuba. On May 18, 2018, the 39-year-old Boeing 737-201 Adv. operating the route crashed shortly after takeoff, near Santiago de las Vegas, 19 kilometres (12 mi; 10 nmi) from Havana city centre. Of those on board, 112 died and one passenger survived with critical injuries. There were initially four survivors, but three of them later died at a local hospital. Most passengers on board were Cuban nationals, and the whole crew was Mexican. An investigation into the incident involving the United States and Mexico determined in September 2019 that the aircraft was outside centre of gravity limits. While the Federal Aviation Administration has no jurisdiction, their assistance was voluntary and welcomed by Cuban officials due to the lack of qualified investigators with knowledge of American aircraft. Additionally, assistance is being provided by Mexico, the country where the airline and flight crew that owned and operated the aircraft is headquartered and the country where the aircraft was registered.
