What happened
During the departure phase from Palma de Mallorca-Son Bonet Airport, the aircraft was climbing through approximately 1,000 feet when a loss of hydraulic pressure occurred in the right engine. In response to this mechanical failure, the captain initiated an emergency procedure to return to the airfield for an immediate landing.
Because the landing gear had not been extended prior to the decision to land, the aircraft performed a belly landing. The impact occurred within 100 meters of the runway threshold. Following the touchdown, the plane was unable to decelerate sufficiently within the available pavement, resulting in a runway overrun before coming to a complete stop.
Findings
- All 31 occupants were successfully evacuated from the aircraft without reported injuries.
- The aircraft sustained damage that rendered it a total loss.
- The primary factor leading to the landing configuration was the loss of hydraulic pressure in the right engine during the climb.
