On 20 October 2025 a Boeing 747 cargo aircraft operated for Emirates SkyCargo by ACT Airlines left the runway after landing at Hong Kong International Airport, collided with a security patrol vehicle and was pulled into the sea, killing two security officers on the vehicle.
The Hong Kong Aviation Accident Investigation Authority reports no mechanical fault linked to the accident and is investigating a forward movement of a gas lever on one engine during the landing roll, which is said to have caused the aircraft to veer left; technical inspections found no fault and future work will include acoustic spectrum analyses to determine whether the lever movement resulted from a mechanical effect or an external force.
