What happened
On the morning of the accident, a flight crew departed from Frankfurt-Main Airport at 09:33 local time to conduct a scheduled training mission. The flight was originally intended to maintain an altitude of 13,000 feet during its maneuvers.
Following the completion of several aerial maneuvers, the crew received clearance to descend to an altitude of 3,600 feet. During this descent phase, the aircraft experienced a sudden loss of control. The plane reportedly entered an inverted roll before impacting a field in the Ansbach region. The impact resulted in a large explosion upon contact with the ground.
Findings
All three crew members on board were killed in the accident. The investigation indicates that the aircraft lost control during the descent following maneuvers.
