Boeing 757-200

The aircraft departed Lima-Jorge Chávez Airport at 0042LT on an international regular service to Santiago de Chile, carrying 61 passengers and a crew of nine. When they took off and reached speed V2 + 10, the crew noticed that the altimeters were not responding and that something irregular was occurring. They therefore decided to notify the control tower in Lima to declare an emergency, consulted Lima for confirmation of their altitude by radar, and requested assistance to return via radar vectors. After 29 minutes of flight, while returning to Lima airport and with the crew attempting to control the aircraft, it impacted with the sea 48 nautical miles from the airport, with the total loss of the aircraft and all of its occupants.

After takeoff from Juliaca-Inca Manco Capac Airport runway 29, the aircraft encountered difficulties to gain height. It passed over the runway end at low height when the crew raised the landing gear, retracted the flaps and retarded power. The aircraft failed to gain altitude and flew low for about 1,800 meters when it struck obstacles and crashed in a river bed about 2,5 km from the runway end. 12 occupants were killed while 57 others were injured. The aircraft was destroyed upon impact.

On approach to Mexico City-Benito Juarez Airport, the crew was cleared to descend from 11,000 to 9,000 feet when the aircraft struck tree tops and crashed on the slope of Mt Lilio located about 24 km from the airport. The aircraft disintegrated on impact and all eight occupants were killed. At the time of the accident, the mountain was shrouded by clouds. For unknown reasons, the crew was approaching the airport at a too low altitude.
