What happened
Upon completing its landing at Cherry Point MCAS, the aircraft experienced a sudden loss of control. During the sequence of events, the aircraft sustained significant structural damage, specifically losing its undercarriage and both wings. Following the loss of these components, the aircraft came to a stop and subsequently ignited, resulting in a post-crash fire.
Findings
- There were no fatalities or injuries reported following the incident.
- The aircraft's structural integrity was compromised by the loss of the wings and landing gear during the uncontrolled descent/roll.
