What happened
While performing a takeoff roll, the aircraft experienced a mechanical failure involving one of its engines. In response to the loss of power, the pilot aborted the takeoff attempt and applied emergency braking to halt the movement of the plane.
Despite these efforts, the aircraft could not be brought to a stop within the available runway length. The plane subsequently overran the end of the pavement and came to a final position off the prepared surface. There was only one person on board at the time of the incident; the pilot escaped the event without any injuries.
While no personnel were harmed, the aircraft sustained damage that rendered it a total loss.
Findings
- The primary factor in the accident was an engine failure occurring during the takeoff phase.
