What happened
A cargo flight operating between Robinson Crusoe Island and Valparaiso concluded with an accident during the landing phase. The twin engine aircraft was transporting a shipment of 1,000 lbs of lobsters, accompanied by one pilot and one passenger.
Upon completing the landing at Valparaiso Airport under favorable weather conditions, the aircraft lost directional control. The plane veered off the runway and traveled across a nearby road before coming to a stop in a wooded area adjacent to the highway. While the impact resulted in the aircraft being damaged beyond repair, both the pilot and the passenger managed to exit the wreckage with only minor injuries.
Findings
The incident occurred during the landing phase of flight in good visibility and weather. The aircraft exited the paved surface and entered a forested area after crossing a roadway.
