An aircraft crashed in the Macaracuay district following technical difficulties during a return attempt after takeoff.

What happened

Following its departure from La Carlota-General Francisco de Miranda AFB, the aircraft experienced mechanical issues. In response to these complications, the crew decided to abort the flight and attempt a return to the airfield. During this maneuver, the plane lost altitude and descended into the Macaracuay district, located approximately 3 km southeast of the airport. The descent resulted in the aircraft striking the roof of a garage before coming to a final rest.

Findings

There were no injuries reported to individuals on the ground at the time of the impact.
The crash was precipitated by technical problems encountered immediately after takeoff.

Probable cause

The crew attempted a return to the airport following mechanical issues, which led to a loss of altitude and subsequent impact with a structure.
