The Poptyping airship disaster of April 4th, 1934 in the Antiforre mountains of [[Tawuse]] was a once-mysterious disaster that led to the death of 47 passengers and 35 crew. The airship, operated by Llinell Orro, was part of the trans-arcturian network that spanned the southern nations of the continent.
 
On a regular trans-arcturian route between cities on the eastern coast of Arcturia, disaster hit between Altomaré and the luxury liner's first stop, Vallentagne. Modern historians believe that the incident followed pilot error. Pilot Vincant Silvas, a newly trained pilot, mistakenly reduced altitude in poor visibility causecaused by autumnal conditions  and crashed into the western slopes of the Antiforre mountains, killing all on board as hydrogen ignited in the gas bag of the airship. Scraps of the wreckage can still be found in the heavily forrestedforested area.
