A Cosmos Air Cargo Boeing 727-300, registration HK-4407 performing a freight flight from Leticia to Bogota (Colombia) with 5 crew, was approaching Bogota in poor weather conditions. After reaching Bogota BOG VOR the aircraft was cleared for the ILS approach to runway 13L and left the VOR at 12000 feet at 04:52L (08:52Z). Subsequently the tower cleared the airplane to land on runway 13L reporting, that the first 500 meters of the runway were wet. At about that time the first officer called 1000 feet, looked out of the window and saw a dark silhouette prompting him to call "climb, climb!" to which the captain responded "Go around". While the airplane rotated nose up, the commander felt a bump prompting him to order declaration of emergency. The flight engineer reported no system anomalies. When the tower asked for the reason of the go-around, the crew replied they never saw the runway, the tower reported a runway visual range of 2000 meters. Following the go-around the crew performed a second approach and managed a safe landing on runway 13L, the airplane stopped on the runway near the runway end and got stuck. The runway was closed for more than 4 hours.

A post flight inspection revealed tree remains in the landing gear, damage to the right hand main gear and right hand flaps, a large portion of the left hand flap had separated. The lower fuselage showed impact marks.

It was established, that the airplane impacted trees just before the outer marker.
