The Korangi Creek crash took place on 27 December 1947 when an Air India flight from Karachi to Bombay crashed shortly after takeoff. All 19 passengers and 4 crew members were killed. Poor visibility and malfunctioning instruments in the cockpit led the pilots to lose control. The Douglas C-48 aircraft was damaged beyond repair. This was the first airline fatality in Pakistan after its independence in 1947. As of 2022, it is the 15th worst aircraft accident in the country.
