What happened
During the departure phase from Frobisher Bay Airport, an aircraft experienced a sudden loss of power in one of its engines. While the flight crew was attempting to manage the situation and initiate a return to the airfield, the plane entered a stall. This led to the aircraft crashing in the vicinity of the airport.
The incident occurred only a few days after the plane had completed a significant overhaul in Toronto. Despite the impact, there were no fatalities; all three occupants sustained slight injuries. The airframe was determined to be a total loss due to damage sustained during the crash.
Findings
Investigations into the accident focused on the mechanical failure of the propulsion system. The primary factor identified in the event was the loss of engine power for reasons that remained undetermined.
