What happened
On the date of the accident, a single-engine aircraft was performing a flight under visual flight rules (VFR) but encountered instrument meteorological conditions (IMC). During this period of restricted visibility, the aircraft impacted the slope of a mountain located in the vicinity of Muya.
The impact resulted in the deaths of all three occupants on board. There were no survivors recorded at the scene of the accident.
Findings
Investigations into the crash determined that the flight was operating in weather conditions that were not suitable for VFR flight. The primary factor leading to the accident was controlled flight into terrain.
