What happened
On the date of the accident, an aircraft departed from Lisbon-Portela de Sacavém Airport. Shortly after the departure sequence was completed and the plane began its ascent, the aircraft experienced a loss of airspeed and entered a stall. This aerodynamic failure led to the plane descending into the Tagus River.
During the climb phase, the aircraft struck the water, resulting in a high-impact accident. There were 11 fatalities recorded among the occupants on board, with no survivors reported from the wreckage.
Findings
Preliminary details indicate that the primary factor leading to the crash was an aerodynamic stall occurring during the initial climb following takeoff.
