What happened
During the early stages of flight departing from Minj Airstrip, an aircraft experienced a critical loss of power. While the aircraft was performing its initial climb immediately after departure, the engine ceased functioning properly.
This mechanical failure led to an aerodynamic stall. Unable to maintain altitude or control, the aircraft descended into a nearby field. The impact resulted in the total destruction of the airframe and caused injuries to the pilot. No other occupants were reported on board during this incident.
Findings
Investigations into the accident determined that the primary reason for the engine failure was fuel exhaustion, which left the engine without the necessary propellant to continue the climb.
