Accident
On final approach to Buriti Alegre Airfield runway 05, the pilot of an airplane encountered a flap malfunction. The flight from Goiânia-Santa Genoveva Airport had been uneventful until the pilot attempted to lower the flaps twice, but the circuit breakers opened each time. Despite this, the pilot decided to continue the approach without flaps.
Sequence of Events
On short final, the aircraft stalled and collided with a wall located 15 metres short of the runway. The impact tore off the undercarriage, causing the airplane to land on its belly. It slid for about 500 metres before coming to rest, at which point it burst into flames. All six occupants escaped uninjured, but the aircraft was destroyed by fire.
Probable Cause
According to the official investigation, the probable cause was the pilot's decision to continue the approach in a flapless configuration at an insufficient speed, which led to a stall on short final.
