TransAsia Airways Flight 235 was a domestic flight from Taipei to Kinmen, Taiwan. On 4 February 2015, the aircraft serving the flight, a 10-month-old ATR 72-600, crashed into the Keelung River around 5 km (3.1 mi; 2.7 nmi) from Taipei Songshan Airport, where the aircraft had just departed from. On board were 58 people, 15 of whom survived.
Two minutes after takeoff, the pilots reported an engine failure. After climbing to a maximum height of 1,630 ft (500 m), the other engine, still operating normally, was mistakenly shut down.[1][2] The aircraft lost altitude, banked sharply to the left and clipped a taxi travelling west on the Huandong Viaduct (causing two more injuries), then the viaduct itself, before crashing into the river below.
Flight 235 was the second fatal accident involving a TransAsia Airways ATR aircraft within seven months; Flight 222 had crashed on 23 July 2014, killing 48 of the 58 onboard.
