Aircraft Nose Gear Collapse During Landing (ST-ASJ)

Incident Overview and Sequence of Events During the landing phase, the aircraft experienced a collapse of its nose gear. This initial failure caused the aircraft to go out of control, resulting in it veering off the runway. As the aircraft made contact with soft ground, the left main gear also collapsed. This secondary failure caused the left propeller to strike the ground. A propeller blade subsequently separated from the aircraft and penetrated the fuselage. The aircraft ultimately came to rest on its belly. ## Outcome and Damage Assessment All occupants of the aircraft were able to escape the incident without sustaining injuries. Despite the successful evacuation, the aircraft sustained extensive damage and was declared beyond repair.
