What happened
During the takeoff phase from Medellín-Enrique Olaya Herrera Airport, an aircraft encountered mechanical difficulties shortly after beginning its ascent. The pilot identified problems with the engine while the plane was climbing, prompting an immediate attempt to perform an emergency landing.
The flight ended when the aircraft struck a field situated north of the airfield in the vicinity of Bello. Following the impact, all six occupants successfully exited the cabin. Shortly after the evacuation, the wreckage was consumed by fire, resulting in the total destruction of the plane.
Findings
- The primary factor in the accident was an engine failure occurring during the climb.
