On 17 December 1960, the Samaritan was due to fly from Munich-Riem airport in Germany to RAF Northolt in the United Kingdom with 13 passengers and 7 crew.〔 Shortly after takeoff, the aircraft lost power to one of its two Pratt & Whitney R-2800 radial engines.〔 Unable to maintain altitude, it hit the 318-foot steeple of St. Paul's Church next to the Oktoberfest site (then vacant) in the downtown Ludwigsvorstadt borough. Subsequently, at 2:10 PM, it crashed into a crowded two-section Munich tramway car in Martin-Greif-Straße, close to Bayerstraße. All 13 passengers and 7 crew members on the plane died. Thirty-two people on the ground were killed and 20 were injured.〔 A section of the wing crashed through the roof of a building at Hermann-Lingg-Straße, a block away from the main accident site, without injuring anybody there. ''Time'' magazine later reported that all 13 passengers on the Convair were holiday-bound University of Maryland students.
