The aircraft was being used to fly personnel from the Army, security and intelligence services to a meeting at Fort George near Inverness. They had taken off from Aldergrove near Belfast and were flying in a north-easterly direction when the aircraft struck the western side of Beinn Na Lice close to the road which descends the steep slope to the Mull of Kintyre lighthouse. It travelled for some distance after the initial impact before coming to rest inverted in two major sections where a fire broke out destroying much of the wreckage.
