The aircraft, piloted by captain Ludvig Razdrih, broke into two pieces and spun out of control, crashing near the village of Srbská Kamenice in Czechoslovakia (now the Czech Republic).
On 27 January 1972, Serbian stewardess Vesna Vulović was the only person on board to survive the crash of JAT Yugoslav Flight 364 after Croatian Ustašas set up the bomb, which exploded 10,160 meters (33,000 ft) above Srbská Kamenice.
