Fatal Mountain Strike During Visual Approach (EC-DFA)

Incident Overview During a visual approach to runway 24, the aircraft descended to an altitude that was too low for the terrain. The crew did not recognize the insufficient altitude before the airplane impacted the slope of a mountain located 8 km short of the runway. The impact forces destroyed the aircraft, and all four occupants were killed. ## Official Findings The investigation determined that the probable cause of the accident was controlled flight into terrain. The source does not provide the aircraft type, registration, operator, date, or specific location beyond the runway designation and distance to the mountain.
