What happened
During the initial climb phase following departure from Bankstown Airport, a twin engine airplane experienced an aerodynamic stall. The loss of lift caused the aircraft to descend rapidly, eventually impacting a camping area located near the airfield.
At the time of the accident, the pilot was the only person on board the aircraft. The impact resulted in one injury sustained by the pilot. There were no reports of any individuals on the ground being harmed during the incident.
Findings
- The aircraft entered a stall state while ascending.
