Incident
A twin-engine aircraft operating a local training flight from Malacca-Batu Berendam Airport experienced a hard landing and subsequent fire. The flight had departed in the morning and, approximately seventeen minutes after takeoff, the crew was returning to the departure point. For reasons unknown, the aircraft landed hard, came to rest, and burst into flames.
Aircraft and Crew
The aircraft was carrying three occupants: two trainee pilots and one instructor. One of the trainees was reported to be attached to the Cambodian Air Force. No further details about the aircraft type or registration were provided in the initial report.
Aftermath
All three crew members evacuated the aircraft safely. The aircraft itself was written off due to the damage sustained from the hard landing and fire.
