What happened
During a scheduled local training mission at Lohegaon Airport, an aircraft was performing its final approach toward runway 28. During this phase of flight, the aircraft made contact with the ground. The force of the impact was sufficient to dislodge multiple runway lights from their positions before the aircraft eventually came to a complete stop.
Despite the severity of the impact, there were no casualties reported. All three occupants managed to exit the aircraft without sustaining any injuries. However, the structural damage sustained during the event was significant, and the aircraft was subsequently declared a total loss.
Findings
While the specific mechanical or operational reasons for the descent into the ground have not been detailed, the primary consequence of the event was the impact with the ground during the approach to the runway.
