What happened
During a local training session at Porto Alegre Airport, a flight crew consisting of an instructor and a student pilot experienced a loss of control immediately following takeoff. As the aircraft type was in its initial climb, the crew initiated the retraction of the landing gear. This action coincided with an aerodynamic stall, causing the plane to descend back onto the runway surface.
Following the impact with the runway, the aircraft slid for a short distance before coming to a complete stop. While the aircraft sustained damage that rendered it a total loss, there were zero fatalities and no injuries reported among the two crew members on board.
Findings
Investigations into the accident revealed that the takeoff procedure was being conducted under conditions of a simulated failure of the right engine. The primary factor in the accident was the use of incorrect procedures by the instructor, specifically attempting to simulate an engine failure prior to reaching V1 speed and trying to lift the aircraft off the ground before it had reached minimum control speed.
