Douglas DC-3

While approaching Puerto Plata-La Union Airport, the right engine failed. Cleared to land on runway 08, the crew initiated a go-around procedure for unclear reasons. While climbing, the left engine lost power and failed so the crew attempted an emergency landing in a field. The aircraft crash landed in a sugar cane field and came to rest. All 35 occupants evacuated safely while the aircraft was damaged beyond repair.

Cessna 402

The twin engine aircraft departed Santo Domingo-Herrera Airport on a short flight to Santo Domingo-La Américas Airport, carrying one passenger and one pilot. En route, both engines failed and the aircraft crashed in the sea few dozen meters offshore. The passenger was rescued while the pilot was killed.
