  • Historical events: On January 25, 1990, Avianca Flight 052, a Boeing 707-321B, crashed in Cove Neck, New York, after running out of fuel while attempting to land at John F. Kennedy International Airport. The crash resulted in 73 fatalities and 85 survivors. The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) determined that the accident was caused by the flight crew's failure to adequately manage the aircraft's fuel load and to communicate an emergency fuel situation to air traffic control before fuel exhaustion occurred.

The NTSB also noted that windshear, crew fatigue, and stress were factors that led to the unsuccessful completion of the first approach and thus contributed to the accident.
