On July 9, 1964 at approximately 18 15 Eastern Time Zone EST it crashed 2 miles northeast of Parrottsville, Tennessee after experiencing an uncontrollable fire on board, killing all 39. The fire of unknown origin initiated below the passenger floor and eventually involved the passenger cabin. One passenger attempted to abandon the aircraft through the No.4 escape window prior to impact but did not survive the free fall. The ignition source was never determined, but it is thought the plane s battery overheated or something in a passenger s luggage caused the fire. According to National Transportation Safety Board NTSB investigators, lethal amounts of carbon dioxide CO sub 2 sub were present in the cockpit, explaining witnesses reports of the aircraft seen flying erratically. The fire eventually burned through the cockpit and it is likely the crew was unconscious by that time.
