Accidents and incidents

On 5 January 2001, an Air Gemini Boeing 727 cargo aircraft (registered S9-BAI) ran off the runway upon landing at the airport, following a flight from Luanda, killing one ground worker. The accident occurred because the airplane had touched the ground short of the runway threshold, resulting in a collapsed landing gear and a subsequent skid-off.{{Cite web|url=http://aviation-safety.net/database/record.php?id=20010105-0|title=ASN Aircraft accident Boeing 727-46F S9-BAI Dundo Airport (DUE)|last=Ranter|first=Harro|website=aviation-safety.net|access-date=2017-08-16}}
