Latest crash reports we recorded

Global Incident Tracker's own records begin in August 2026.

What this page shows, and what it misses

Two separate records, never added together. Wikidata: every item classed as an aviation accident (or a kind of one, such as a helicopter crash, mid-air collision or runway excursion) with a date in 1995, with the death toll, country, operator and aircraft as entered there. It favours larger, widely reported accidents, and new entries appear days or weeks after a crash.

Neither is an official world total, and the two counts differ because they count different things. For US civil aviation alone, the NTSB's CAROL accident database lists every accident it investigates, most of them small private aircraft.

Aviation accident data: Wikidata (CC0 public domain), from its structured fields only. Crash reports: Global Incident Tracker.

QuestionsPlane crashes in 1995

How many plane crashes have there been in 1995?
Wikidata lists 35 aviation accidents in 1995, with 751 deaths recorded against them. These are the counts in Wikidata, not an official world total. The deadliest listed: American Airlines Flight 965 (20 Dec 1995, 159 dead).
Which was the deadliest plane crash of 1995?
Among the aviation accidents listed in Wikidata for 1995, the deadliest is American Airlines Flight 965 on 20 Dec 1995 in Colombia, with 159 deaths recorded.
Why do different sites give different numbers of plane crashes?
Because they count different things. Some count only airliner accidents, some every accident of a small private plane, some only those with deaths. Wikidata lists accidents that someone has added as a structured item, which favours larger and widely reported crashes. Global Incident Tracker counts crash reports it picked up from news and official feeds. For the United States alone, the NTSB investigates over a thousand civil aviation accidents a year, most of them small private aircraft.
