After a long crew duty period, the crew started its takeoff roll at a few minutes prior to midnight. The aircraft impacted the ground 8 km (5 miles) east of the departure base because it lacked sufficient power to either climb above or turn to avoid rapidly rising terrain in that area. All 20 occupants of this <a href="/wiki/Tactical_Air_Command" title="Tactical Air Command">Tactical Air Command</a> (TAC) operated aircraft were killed in the crash and subsequent fire at about 8,500 feet up the Manzano Mountain Range east of <a href="/wiki/Albuquerque" class="mw-redirect" title="Albuquerque">Albuquerque</a>, NM.<sup id="cite_ref-24" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-24"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>24<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></li> <li>On 2 January 1980, USAF EC-135P, (AF Serial Number <i>58-0007</i>), was destroyed on the ground at <a href="/wiki/Langley_AFB" class="mw-redirect" title="Langley AFB">Langley AFB</a> when an electrical short occurred in the water injection tank heater wiring on the J-57-P/F-59W equipped aircraft.

For an unexplained reason, the aircraft pitch trim was moved to the full nose-down position, which exceeded the ability of the autopilot to control, and the aircraft pitched over abruptly. The abrupt pitch over caused the generators to trip off line and the loss of AC electrical power prevented the pitch trim from being operated normally. The aircraft became uncontrollable and exploded at about 1,500 ft MSL. The crash occurred near Walkersville, MD at 10:50L. All seventeen crew members and four passengers on board the aircraft were killed.<sup id="cite_ref-26" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-26"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>26<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></li> <li>On 29 May 1992, USAF EC-135J, (AF Serial Number <i>62-3584</i>), landed long at <a href="/wiki/Pope_AFB" class="mw-redirect" title="Pope AFB">Pope AFB</a> (North Carolina) and overshot the runway.
