What happened
During an approach toward Miraflores Airport, the flight crew was directed to perform a go-around because another aircraft was occupying the runway. While the aircraft was repositioning within the traffic pattern for a subsequent approach attempt, the crew encountered a critical mechanical issue when one of the engines ceased functioning.
In response to the loss of power, the crew feathered the propeller and initiated an emergency landing procedure. However, during this maneuver, the aircraft type crashed in the vicinity of the airport. The accident resulted in two fatalities, including one passenger and one crew member, while the remaining occupants sustained injuries.
Findings
Investigations into the incident identified that the primary factor was an engine failure occurring during the approach phase.
