What happened
During the initial climb phase following takeoff, the aircraft's left engine experienced a fire and subsequently ceased functioning. This mechanical failure caused the plane to lose both airspeed and altitude rapidly. The aircraft descended into the area located near the end of the runway, where it impacted the ground and caught fire.
Despite the intensity of the flames, all three occupants were able to evacuate the wreckage. While there were no reported fatalities among those on board, the aircraft was completely destroyed in the accident.
Findings
Investigations into the incident determined that a fire originated in the left engine during the takeoff sequence. The specific underlying reason for the ignition of the engine fire remains undetermined.
