On 4 January 2008, a scheduled domestic Transaven flight from Simón Bolívar International Airport to Los Roques Airport, 118 kilometres (64 nmi) north of the departure airport and over water, radioed that both engines had failed and that they were descending through 910 metres (3,000 ft). The crew was going to attempt a ditching as close as possible to the Los Roques archipelago.
