The DC-9 crashed following an explosion by a bomb placed by émigré Croat Ustaša extremists. The attack occurred amid a purge of Croatian leaders and intellectuals by Yugoslav authorities. The flight had six crew members and twenty two passengers. One crew member survived, a flight attendant named Vesna Vulović . Vulovic entered the Guinness Book Of Records for the highest fall survived without a parachute, as she fell from 10,160 meters (33,330 feet) inside of the tail section of the aircraft. She was temporarily paralyzed from the waist down but lived to tell about it. She continued working for the airline holding a desk job. This is the only fatal incident the airline has had.
