What happened
During the final approach phase of flight to Útila Airport, an aircraft descended below the required altitude. While maneuvering toward the runway, the plane made contact with a concrete wall. This impact resulted in the loss of the aircraft's undercarriage.
Following the collision with the wall, the pilot performed a crash landing at the airfield. Despite the severity of the impact and the subsequent landing, there were no fatalities or injuries reported among those on board.
Findings
- The primary factor in the accident was that the aircraft was flying at an insufficient altitude during its approach to the airport.
