La Nationale (formerly Nationale Regionale Transport, French: Transport Nationale Régionale) is a domestic airline based in Libreville, Gabon.[1] Its main base is Libreville International Airport.[1] It was rebranded in 2009 from National Airways Gabon to La Nationale.[2]
On October 12, 2011, a Nationale Regionale Transport EMB-120, registration ZS-PYO (MSN: 120245) performing a charter flight from Libreville to Port Gentil (Gabon), overran runway 21's end and came to a stop with the nose gear intact, both main gear struts bent backwards causing the engines to "pitch down" together with the wings. A few passengers sustained minor injuries, but the aircraft was damaged beyond repair and was written off[5][6][7]
