What happened
During the landing phase of the flight, the aircraft experienced a loss of directional control immediately after making contact with the runway. Following the initial touchdown, the plane drifted from the paved surface and exited the runway area. The movement continued until the aircraft struck a ditch, where it eventually came to a stop.
Despite the impact with the terrain, all 13 occupants on board were able to evacuate the aircraft without injury. While there were no casualties, the incident resulted in the aircraft being declared a total loss due to damage that was beyond repair.
Findings
Official investigations concluded that the primary factor leading to the excursion was the presence of strong crosswinds during the landing sequence, which prevented the crew from maintaining the centerline after touchdown.
