What happened
During a departure from Saigon-Tan Son Nhat Airport, an aircraft entered its initial climb phase at an altitude of roughly 100 feet when a mechanical failure occurred. Specifically, one of the engines ceased functioning properly during this critical stage of flight. This loss of power caused the plane to lose airspeed and enter a stall.
The resulting descent led to a crash approximately 3 km away from the airport perimeter. The impact resulted in the total destruction of the airframe. Among the eight people on board, there were six fatalities and two injuries reported among the crew members.
Findings
Investigations into the accident determined that the primary factor leading to the loss of control was an engine failure occurring during the initial climb.
