What happened
During a local training mission conducted in the vicinity of Thornhill, an aircraft experienced a critical mechanical issue while maneuvering for landing. As the crew was executing the final approach to the runway, one of the engines ceased functioning properly.
This loss of power caused the aircraft to enter a stall condition. Consequently, the plane descended rapidly and struck the ground before reaching the runway threshold. The impact resulted in the total destruction of the airframe. Both members of the flight crew sustained injuries during the accident.
Findings
Official investigations into the incident concluded that the primary factor leading to the loss of control was an engine failure occurring during the approach phase.
