What happened

During an approach to San Carlos de Rio Negro Airport, a twin engine aircraft encountered stormy weather conditions.

As a result of the impact, there was one injury reported among the passengers, while the remaining 11 occupants on board were not harmed. The aircraft sustained damage that rendered it a total loss.
