- Location: Bremen-Neuenland, Bremen, Germany

The OLT Dornier 328 landed with a tailwind and used reverse thrust. Speed indications became unusable, the aircraft went unstable at low speed, and it was oversteered. The left main gear collapsed and the aircraft rolled about 1,150 m before stopping. All three crew left uninjured.
