List of accidents and incidents involving the Boeing 737

The following is a list of accidents and incidents involving the Boeing family of jet airliners, including the Boeing 737 Original (737-100/200), Boeing 737 Classic (737-300/-400/-500), Boeing 737 Next Generation (737-600/-700/-800/-900) and Boeing 737 MAX (737 MAX 7/8/200/9/10) series of aircraft.

The 737 series was the best-selling commercial jetliner in history until this achievement was surpassed by the Airbus A320 series in 2019 mainly due to the Boeing 737 MAX groundings, with the first unit having first entered airline service in February 1968[1] and the 10,000th unit entering service in March 2018.[2] The first accident involving a 737 was on July 19, 1970, when a 737-200 was damaged beyond repair during an aborted takeoff, with no fatalities; the first fatal accident occurred on December 8, 1972, when United Airlines Flight 553 crashed while attempting to land, with 45 (43 onboard plus 2 on the ground) fatalities; and, as of June 2020, the largest loss of life was an accident on October 29, 2018, when Lion Air Flight 610, a 737 MAX 8, crashed into the Java Sea shortly after takeoff, with 189 fatalities. The most recent crash was on February 5, 2020, when Pegasus Airlines Flight 2193, a 737-800, skidded off the runway at Sabiha Gökçen International Airport in Istanbul, Turkey.

Several accidents of the 737 Original and Classic series were due to a design flaw in a power control unit (PCU) causing uncommanded rudder movement under thermal shock: see Boeing 737 rudder issues for further info.

In October 2018 and March 2019, two fatal crashes of 737 MAX aircraft occurred due to software error in the MAX's Maneuvering Characteristics Augmentation System leading to a worldwide grounding of all 737 MAX aircraft.

  • June 15, 2006: TNT Airways Flight 352, using a 737-300 freighter and operating from Liège Airport in Belgium to London Stansted Airport in the United Kingdom had to divert to East Midlands Airport due to bad weather.

There were no injuries. The cause of the crash was determined to be a poorly timed message from local air traffic control which the pilot misinterpreted, causing him to descend too quickly. The team of pilots were said by the airline to have managed the situation with skill once the error had been detected, but were dismissed from service with the company as a result of the incident.[81]
