Fatal aircraft crash following engine failure after takeoff (EC-DFC)

What happened

During the initial climb phase of flight, the aircraft experienced a sudden loss of power due to an engine malfunction. This mechanical failure led to a subsequent loss of control over the aircraft's trajectory. The plane impacted the ground shortly after takeoff, and the impact was followed by a post-crash fire that engulfed the wreckage.

There were two fatalities recorded in the accident, as both pilots on board were killed during the event. No other occupants were reported on the flight.

Findings

Official investigations concluded that the primary factor in the accident was an engine failure occurring during the climb. The specific underlying reason for the engine's malfunction remains undetermined.
