What happened
During a local training session operating out of Luton Airport, the crew initiated a procedure involving the deliberate shutdown of one engine. Shortly after the aircraft departed the runway, the plane became uncontrollable. The flight path led to a collision with a factory building located in the vicinity of the airport, where the impact resulted in a significant fire.
The crash resulted in two fatalities among the crew members. While the aircraft was completely destroyed during the accident, there were no reported injuries to individuals on the ground at the time of the impact.
Findings
Official investigations concluded that the aircraft experienced a loss of control during the initial climb phase. This instability occurred while the plane was operating with one engine inoperative, a condition which likely compromised the flight performance and maneuverability required to maintain safe flight.
