What happened
During a flight departing from Kapoeta Airport in June 2005, the aircraft experienced a mechanical failure involving one of its engines. Following the loss of power, the crew initiated a return procedure to the airfield. However, the situation necessitated an emergency landing in the vicinity of the airport.
While the aircraft sustained damage that rendered it a total loss, there were no injuries reported among the occupants. The specific day of the incident has not been recorded, though it occurred within the month of June.
Findings
- The primary factor in the emergency landing was the failure of one engine during the initial climb or takeoff phase.
