NTSB To Take Lead Role In 2013 National Airlines Boeing 747 Accident

Afghanistan Delegates Completion Of The Investigation To The U.S. Board

The NTSB will complete the investigation into the April 29, 2013 crash of a National Airlines Boeing 747 at Bagram Air Base, Afghanistan. The cargo flight went down on takeoff on its way from Bagram to Dubai. All seven crew members were fatally injured and the airplane was destroyed.

The investigation is being conducted in accordance with ICAO Annex 13. Initially, the investigation was led by the state of occurrence, the Republic of Afghanistan. The NTSB assisted as the accredited representative of the U.S., the state of manufacturer and the state of the operator.

This week, the Afghanistan Civil Aviation Authority delegated the remainder of the investigation to the NTSB, which will include completing the final report. NTSB Acting Chairman Christopher A. Hart has appointed Tim LeBaron as the investigator in charge.
