What happened
During a routine local training mission at Andrés Sabella Gálvez Intl Airport, an aircraft experienced a loss of control immediately following liftoff. While the crew was executing the departure, the pilot-in-command performed a sudden right-hand turn at a low altitude. This maneuver caused the left wingtip to make contact with the ground surface.
Following the wing strike, the Mirage became uncontrollable and crashed in an area adjacent to the runway. The incident resulted in three injuries, though no fatalities were reported among the occupants. The aircraft sustained damage that rendered it a total loss.
Findings
Preliminary details suggest the accident was precipitated by the pilot's decision to execute a steep turn while still at a low height. It appears the pilot-in-command may have been unaware of the aircraft wingspan limitations during the maneuver, which was performed shortly after air traffic control instructed the crew to expedite their takeoff.
