==Accidents and incidents== * On June 8, 2004, a Gabon Express flight using a [[Hawker Siddeley HS 748 Series 2A]], departed from Libreville for a scheduled passenger flight to [[Franceville]]. Engine problems forced the crew to turn back for Libreville but the aircraft [[Gabon Express Flight 221|crashed]] 100 m offshore. Of the 30 people on board, 19 of them were killed. The Gabonese government proposed legal action against the company and banned it from operating, claiming it had failed to insure its aircraft.<ref>{{cite web | url = https://aviation-safety.net/database/record.php?id=20040608-0 | title = Gabon Express | publisher = Aviation Safety | access-date = 6 March 2022}}</ref>
