At 1644 P.s.t., Air California Flight 336, a scheduled passenger service flight from San Jose to Santa Ana departed San Jose, California, with 105 passengers and 5 crewmembers on board. The en route portion of the flight was normal. About 1732 P.s.t., the aircraft was handed off to the John Wayne Orange County Airport control tower for a visual approach to runway 19R. The flight was initially sequenced for landing behind a Beech Bonanza and a Boeing 737, Western Flight 383. The Bonanza was turned out of traffic and subsequently sequenced to land behind Air California 336. Western 383 landed and Air California Flight 931, Santa Ana to San Jose, was cleared onto the runway and then cleared for takeoff. Recognizing that the separation criteria between Air California 336 and Air California 931 had been jeopardized, the air traffic controller instructed Air California 336 to go-around and Air California 931 to abort the takeoff. Air California 931 aborted and Air California 336 subsequently touched down on the runway and came to rest about 2,070 feet down the runway, with the landing gear retracted. Four passengers sustained serious injuries and 29 incurred minor injuries. The aircraft was destroyed by impact and postimpact fire.
