Air disasters are one of the most heartbreaking tragedies that will always catch our attention. Probably you've heard of numerous of these cases, such as the infamous 9/11 terrorist attack on the US World Trade Center, the mysterious disappearance of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370, and many others.


Such incidents make us wonder are there plane-related tragedies that have also happened in the Philippines?


Sadly, there is. 


On April 19, 2000, Air Philippines Flight 541 from Manila, bound for Davao City, crashed in a coconut plantation on Samal Island near the plane's destination. 


All 131 people on board, including passengers and the aircraft's seven-member crew, died, making this catastrophic incident by far the worst air disaster in the Philippines.
