This is the second RMAF aircraft crash in three months. On 26 February, a CN-235 transport aircraft made a crash landing in the water near the coastline of Kuala Selangor. The aircraft apparently experienced engine problem and made an emergency landing. All crew and passengers were unharmed but a local villager apparently drowned while trying to reach the crashed aircraft to rescue those onboard.
