Definitely was not the horrible Tenerife accident between two 747s on the ground. That involved KLM and PanAm aircraft.
The LH 747 I believe was a takeoff accident in Frankfurt.....can't remember when or why.

RL_201 get the price !

A virtual six pack



Lufthansa 747 flight #540, the first ever crash of a Boeing 747

Problem wit slats
Misconception corrected by Boeing after this crash.

South African Airways Flight 295
B747 Combi
Some mysteries remain about the origin of the fire (rumours of material for special ammos for the South African army in the cargo)
Very long researches (succesfull) in very deep sea (can be inspiration for the reseachers of the AF447)

I'll admit to "clicking" on the mentioned link. Very informational!
