What happened
During an approach to Mitú-Fabio Alberto León Bentley Airport, a single-engine aircraft was performing a descent when the crew encountered degraded visibility caused by adverse weather conditions. As the aircraft progressed on its final approach, it descended to an altitude that was too low for the terrain. The aircraft subsequently made contact with trees and crashed before reaching the runway.
Findings
- The flight was operating in poor visibility due to inclement weather.
- The aircraft's flight path was insufficient to clear obstacles, leading to a collision with trees.
- The accident resulted in three fatalities among the occupants of the aircraft.
