A twin-engine aircraft veered off the runway during its takeoff roll, resulting in significant damage to the airframe but no injuries.

What happened

During the initial stages of takeoff, a twin-engine aircraft experienced a loss of directional control. While accelerating along the runway, the aircraft reached a speed of 80 knots before deviating toward the right side of the pavement. This deviation caused the plane to exit the runway surface and come to a stop.

Despite the impact of the excursion, all 11 occupants were able to exit the aircraft without injury. The incident resulted in the aircraft being declared a total loss, as the structural damage was deemed beyond repair.

Findings

  • The aircraft departed the runway during the takeoff roll.
  • The excursion occurred once the aircraft reached 80 knots.
  • The aircraft veered right during the takeoff phase.

Probable cause

The aircraft deviated from the runway centerline during the takeoff roll at 80 knots.
