What happened
While performing the takeoff roll, the aircraft's right main landing gear suffered a structural collapse. This mechanical failure caused the plane to veer across the runway surface before eventually coming to a halt.
Despite the intensity of the excursion, all 60 occupants on board were able to exit the aircraft without injury. Following the incident, an assessment determined that the airframe sustained damage so extensive that it was classified as a total loss.
Findings
Investigations into the incident concluded that the primary factor in the runway excursion was the collapse of the right main gear during the initial phase of takeoff.
