What happened
During the departure phase from Don Mueang Airport in Bangkok, an aircraft experienced a mechanical failure involving the starboard engine. The incident occurred shortly after the plane had departed the runway and was in its climbing stage.
In response to the loss of power on one side, the pilot initiated an attempt to fly back toward the airport for an emergency landing. However, during this maneuver, the aircraft entered a stall. The subsequent crash took place in a field situated approximately 500 meters from the runway threshold.
The accident resulted in four fatalities and left 14 injuries among the people on board.
Findings
Investigations into the accident determined that the primary factor was the failure of the starboard engine immediately following takeoff.
