The Valetta was flying cadets from Uppsala to RAF Cranwell when an oil problem on one engine forced its propeller to be feathered and the crew diverted to Stockholm Bromma. In poor visibility and with ice on the aircraft, the go around failed and it hit a hill 2.5 km west of the airport. One occupant died and twelve were injured.
