What happened
During a local training operation conducted at Brasília Airport, the crew was engaged in a flight profile designed to simulate emergency procedures. While on final approach, the instructor pilot initiated a maneuver involving a simulated failure of the right engine by reducing power to that unit. During this process, the aircraft experienced a stall and made contact with the ground before reaching the runway threshold. The impact caused the aircraft to bounce.
Following the initial ground contact, the left engine failed to provide sufficient response, leading to a secondary stall. This sequence resulted in the final crash of the aircraft. The accident resulted in two injuries among the crew members, and the aircraft was completely destroyed during the event.
Findings
Investigations into the accident highlighted errors in flight management during the simulated emergency. Specifically, the pilot undergoing training failed to manage the propeller controls correctly. Additionally, there was a lack of adequate supervision provided by the instructor during the critical phase of the maneuver.
