Shortly after the departure, while the aircraft was performing its initial climb, it encountered significant downdrafts. These atmospheric conditions led to the loss of control and the subsequent crash of the aircraft.
Despite the impact, there were no casualties reported among the occupants of the plane. The flight ended during the early stages of the ascent immediately following takeoff.
