- Date: September 25, 1991
- Aircraft: Dassault Falcon 20
- Location: Kiel-Holtenau, Schleswig-Holstein, Germany
- Fatalities: 1
- Phase of flight: Approach and landing
- Cause: Wrong approach configuration with an excessive speed and approach above the glide path, a late go-around decision, poor crew coordination and a wet runway with poor braking.
A Dassault Falcon 20 on a charter flight from Milan landed far down a wet runway at Kiel-Holtenau after an approach flown too fast and above the glide path. The crew started a go-around too late, and the jet struck trees beyond the runway end and crashed in woodland. One pilot was killed and nine occupants were injured.
