Incident Overview
A parachute/orientation flight concluded with an abnormal landing incident. After the parachutists had exited the aircraft, the airplane, flown by the first pilot, returned to the airport. The descent was conducted at the maximum permissible descent rate.
Landing Sequence
According to the second pilot, a company check pilot who was also on board, the first pilot touched down simultaneously on the nose landing gear and the right main landing gear at a high airspeed. This touchdown configuration led to an immediate loss of directional control.
Post-Impact Events
The airplane swerved to the left after touchdown. It subsequently struck a bush located approximately 150 feet from the runway centerline. The impact caused the aircraft to nose over. No further information about the aircraft's condition or occupant status was provided in the source.
Operational Context
The flight was conducted as a parachute/orientation mission. The presence of a company check pilot indicates an evaluation or training element. The exact aircraft type, registration, and number of occupants were not specified in the available data.
