United Airlines Flight 624, a Douglas DC-6 airliner, registration NC37506, was a scheduled passenger flight from San Diego, California to New York City. The four-engined, propeller-driven airplane crashed at 1:41 pm Eastern Daylight Time on June 17, 1948, outside of Aristes, Pennsylvania, resulting in the deaths of all four crew members and 39 passengers on board. The crew had been responding to a false signal of a fire in the front cargo hold by releasing CO2, apparently without opening the pressure relief valves. The part-incapacitated crew began an emergency descent and hit a high-voltage power line.
