* [[Air Astana Flight 1388]], an [[Embraer E-Jet family|Embraer ERJ-E190]], suffered severe control issues from an incorrectly installed aileron cables shortly after taking off from Alverca Air Base, [[Portugal]]. The flight crew struggled to control the plane for about 90 minutes. During that period, they lost control of their aircraft multiple times and figured out how to gain more control by activating direct mode for flight controls which disconnects the FCM (flight control module) from the controls, which greatly increased controllability of the pitch and yaw-[[Aircraft principal axes|axes]], but control of the roll axis was still limited. After 90 minutes and two unsuccessful landing attempts, the flight crew managed to land the plane at [[Beja Airport]]. Everyone aboard survived the incident, but one suffered a leg injury.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Ranter |first=Harro |title=ASN Aircraft accident Embraer ERJ-190LR (ERJ-190-100 LR) P4-KCJ Lisbon |url=https://aviation-safety.net/database/record.php?id=20181111-0 |access-date=2022-09-18 |website=aviation-safety.net}}</ref>
* [[Emery Worldwide Airlines Flight 17]], a [[Douglas DC-8|McDonnel Douglas DC-8]], crashes shortly after taking off from [[Sacramento Mather Airport|Sacremento Mather Airport]] on 16 February, 2000. The crash killed all three crew members. The investigation found that a control rod to the [[Elevator (aeronautics)|right elevator control tab]] detached, causing a loss of pitch control while taking off. The disconnection was caused by the failure to properly secure and inspect the attachment bolt during prior maintenance.
