What happened
During the final approach phase toward Navegantes-Itajaí Airport, the flight crew encountered difficulties managing the aircraft's altitude. The aircraft was positioned too high above the glide path, prompting the captain to decrease engine power in an attempt to initiate a steep descent to reach the runway.
While on short final, the maneuver resulted in an aerodynamic stall. The aircraft subsequently collided with a building, which caused the loss of several structural components. The flight ended with a crash located short of the runway threshold. While there were no injuries reported among those on board, the aircraft was determined to be a total loss due to damage sustained during the impact.
Findings
Investigations into the accident identified that the primary factor was an incorrect approach configuration maintained by the flight crew during the descent.
