Cebu Pacific Flight 387 was a domestic passenger flight that tragically met an abrupt end on its journey from Manila to Cagayan de Oro. The flight, operated by Cebu Pacific Air, took off on a routine schedule but encountered severe weather challenges as it approached the mountainous terrain of Mindanao. During the approach, the flight became disoriented in thick clouds, making it difficult for the pilots to accurately navigate the flight path. As a result, the DC-9 crashed into Mount Sumagaya in the early afternoon, ultimately claiming the lives of all 104 people on board, which included 96 passengers and 8 crew members.The aircraft was relatively new and maintained a solid safety record prior to this flight. Unfortunately, this incident raised concerns about the adherence to safety protocols and navigational techniques, especially when flying in adverse weather conditions. Investigations revealed that pilots struggled with visibility issues and potential misjudgment of altitudes due to the mountainous landscape. The tragedy not only caused immense loss for the families of the victims but also led to heightened scrutiny and improvements in aviation safety standards in the Philippines, particularly regarding flight operations in challenging environments.
