A DA 40 NG aircraft, registration RA-02635, experienced a loss of control resulting in a stall during a training flight in the Ulyanovsk region.

On July 26, 2019, a DA 40 NG, registration RA-02635, was involved in an aviation accident in the area of the Novo-Chekurskoye settlement, Ulyanovsk region. The aircraft was being operated by FGBOU VO UI GA for flight training purposes involving a flight instructor and cadets.

Prior to the accident, the crew had completed medical examinations, weather briefings, and pre-flight inspections at the Ulyanovsk (Barataevka) airfield. The flight was part of a scheduled training shift that included route, circular, and aerobatic maneuvers.

During the flight, the instructor attempted to demonstrate a simulated emergency landing outside of the airfield. This maneuver involved descending below the safe altitude required for the task.

While maneuvering in close proximity to the ground, the flight instructor lost control of the aircraft's airspeed. This led to the aircraft reaching critical angles of attack and entering a stall.

Probable cause

The accident was caused by the flight instructor's loss of airspeed control during low-altitude maneuvering, leading to a stall. Contributing factors included the instructor descending below safe altitudes to simulate an emergency landing, inadequate training regarding stall recognition and recovery, deficiencies in flight training methodology, and a lack of effective oversight by the flight control service. Additionally, systemic issues such as low safety culture, insufficient crew resource management training, and ineffective risk identification at the training center were identified.
