What happened
A flight departing from Bogotá-El Dorado Airport ended in an accident during a scheduled post-maintenance inspection. The crew, consisting of one pilot and one engineer, was conducting a check of the aircraft's systems following recent service work.
Shortly after departure, while the aircraft was executing a left-hand turn, the pilot experienced a loss of control. This maneuver led to the plane descending into a residential district within Bogotá. Despite the impact near populated buildings, both occupants were successfully rescued from the wreckage. There were no reported injuries to people on the ground following the incident.
Findings
The primary factor in the accident was the loss of control during a turning maneuver performed during the post-maintenance flight phase.
