What happened
During the initial phase of takeoff, an error occurred involving the flight controls that led to the unintended retraction of the landing gear. While the aircraft was still in its takeoff roll, the landing gear was raised prematurely by one of the crew members.
As a result of this action, the aircraft lost its structural support from the wheels and settled onto its undercarriage belly. The impact caused the plane to slide along the runway for several dozen meters before the motion eventually ceased.
There were no fatalities or injuries reported during the incident. However, the mechanical stress and friction from the ground contact resulted in the aircraft being declared a total loss, as it was damaged beyond repair.
Findings
Investigations into the event identified that the primary factor was the premature retraction of the landing gear while the aircraft was still on the ground. This error was compounded by a lack of effective coordination between the crew members during the critical takeoff sequence.
