What happened
During a positioning flight originating from the Tukalan River toward a remote destination, an incident occurred during the initial stages of departure. As the aircraft began its takeoff run, the landing gear became embedded in soft terrain.
This loss of momentum caused the aircraft to pitch forward, resulting in a nose-over maneuver. Following the impact with the ground, the airframe caught fire. The two crew members on board were able to evacuate the wreckage safely and sustained zero fatalities or injuries during the event.
While the occupants escaped without harm, the aircraft was completely destroyed by the subsequent flames.
