What happened
The incident involved a navigation exercise conducted by a crew of four individuals. The aircraft departed from Aberdeen-Dyce Airport and proceeded to fly in the vicinity of RAF Fraserburgh. During this phase of the flight, the airplane experienced an engine failure. In response to the mechanical issue, the pilot in command initiated an emergency landing procedure. The aircraft was brought down in a field located in Rosehearty. Upon impact, all four occupants were able to evacuate the wreckage and sustained no injuries. However, the structural damage sustained by the airframe rendered it damaged beyond repair.
Findings
The official investigation identified the primary factor leading to the accident as an engine failure in flight. No other contributing factors or human error elements were specified in the available source material regarding the sequence of events or the final outcome.
