What happened
During the initial climb phase following departure from Condoto-Mandinga Airport, the aircraft's right engine ceased functioning. In response to the loss of power, the flight crew initiated an emergency descent to perform a landing within a nearby swampy area.
Upon making contact with the ground, the right engine became detached from the airframe. The engine component struck the cockpit area during the landing sequence, resulting in one injury sustained by the copilot. All other passengers and crew members on board were able to evacuate the wreckage and sustained only minor injuries.
Findings
Investigations into the incident identified that the primary factor was the failure of the right engine immediately after takeoff. The specific underlying reason for the mechanical malfunction remains undetermined.
