Which aircraft have suffered no hull losses??

[I.R.PIRATE]

Hey there all, I was having an interesting discussion the other night about which type of aircraft have never been involved in a crash before, whether it be pilot error, or mechanical failure, or what ever reason. Can anyone think of an aircraft type that has suffered no hull losses before?

..........A 3 8 0

.......Boeing 777?

[sharksucker]

-Spoose Goose (shortly after WWII, Wingspan over 300 ft..)
-AN 225

both only once build (ok., the Spoose Goose never really flew for long..)

Edit:
IL 96 and TU 204 as well as far I am aware of...
737-NG?
Dornier 328-Jet
EMB 170, 135
C-17 Globemaster..

The Concorde almost, what shame after such a long spell!

[Parrot]

You can cross the IL-96 off the list. They put one into the deck abouta year ago on a training/repositioning flight. There were no paying pax on board.

[Trentino]

actually Parrot it was not an IL-96 but an 86 and I do believe it was from an overzealous pilot that said 'lets see what she can do'
The IL-96 has not suffered a hull loss.

As far as I know A340?

Spruce Goose as well.

Condorde had many incidents operating for both BA and Airfrance, including bits of rudder that fell off on 3 occasions.

[Shrike200]

www.b737.org.uk still indicates that no 737 NG has sufffered a hull loss, and it seems to get updated quite regularly. Also, there are some Airbus variants that have a clean record, but I can't remember which, so that's pretty useless!

Air France had an A340 hull-loss on the ground - early S/N cargo door (yellow) electric pump overheated & the whole fuselage section was toast.

Air Mauritius experienced a similar event & were lucky not to have a hull-loss.

Then there were a couple of Sri Lankan a/c taken out on the ground in CMB.

Trentino, I think you are right ..it was an IL-86.

[cringe]

A318, B717 and........ Dassault Mercure.

[crewbouy]

if there is any, dont let old J. O get hold of the stats and maybe ''want'' one... the track record might be lost within a few days after perchase.

Oh really? Many incidents? Or is the rudder incident the only one you've really heard about, and you just threw in the 'many' bit for effect?

..........Eclipse 500

[stressmerchant]

Haven't checked the records to confirm this one, but a friend of mine who was a design engineer on the VC-10 claimed that the type had no hull losses.

[EDDNHopper]

VC10: 7 hull-losses.
See database.

For a more or less complete list check Aviation Safety Network.

[alexmcfire]

Breguet-763/765, certainly cool looking and accident free....

[I.R.PIRATE]

Maybe I should rephrase my question slightly. I wonder which Aircraft have suffered the least hull losses versus the most hours flown. Probabaly 747??

[Antman]

Proberbly the Airbus A330.The only hull loss I can recall was during flight testing at the factory,no losses in actual service.
