1962 Taurus Mountains Turkish Airlines F-27 crash

The aircraft was descending into Adana when it encountered cumulus clouds, leading the pilots to fly around them and change their altitude accordingly.

It is believed that the pilots lost track of their location and altitude while doing so, causing the plane to crash into the bottom of an abyss at the mountain.

[3] The aircraft crashed at 15:43 local time at 6,800 feet (2,100 m) AMSL into Mount Medetsiz, 47 nautical miles (87 km) from the Adana radio range.

The recovery team initially had difficulties reaching the accident site due to strong winds and snow.

[10] One of the passengers on the flight was Ahmet Delibalta, who was returning to Adana after searching for a female singer for his nightclub.

According to a book published by professor Ian Stevenson of the University of Virginia, Kılıç was afraid of seeing and hearing airplanes until the age of three.

Stevenson claimed that soon after gaining ability to speak, Kılıç said that he was Delibalta, died in a plane crash and that he survived the initial impact, but later froze to death.

[13] The two-page long final report was translated to English and released by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) in 1966.
