What happened
During the departure phase from Vantaa Airport in Helsinki, the flight crew encountered significant mechanical difficulties. Shortly after departing the runway, the pilot communicated that the aircraft was experiencing engine-related issues and requested permission to perform an emergency return to the airfield.
While attempting to manage the situation, the airplane experienced a rapid loss of altitude. The aircraft subsequently impacted the ground near the airport, resulting in a post-crash fire. There were three fatalities among the occupants of the plane, with no survivors reported from the wreckage.
Findings
Investigations into the accident determined that the primary factor was a mechanical failure involving the propulsion system. Specifically, one engine ceased functioning shortly after takeoff, while the remaining engine suffered a partial loss of power, making it impossible to maintain flight.
