Adam Air Flight 574

Adam Air Flight 574 (KI-574) was a scheduled domestic passenger flight operated by Adam Air between the Indonesian cities of Surabaya (SUB) and Manado (MDC) that disappeared near Polewali in Sulawesi on 1 January 2007.[3] The plane, a Boeing 737-400, was ultimately determined to have crashed into the ocean. All 102 people on board died, the highest death toll of any aviation accident involving a Boeing 737–400.[4] A full national investigation was immediately launched into the disaster. The final report, released on 25 March 2008, concluded that the pilots lost control of the aircraft after they became preoccupied with troubleshooting the inertial navigation system and inadvertently disconnected the autopilot.[1]
