Aircraft Emergency Landing in Neerach After Dual Engine Failure on Final Approach to Zurich-Kloten (HB-LMT)

Incident Overview and Emergency Landing Details During final approach to runway 14 at Zurich-Kloten Airport, the aircraft experienced a simultaneous failure of both engines after passing over the outer marker. The pilot reduced altitude and executed an emergency landing in a snow-covered field in Neerach, approximately 6.5 km short of the runway threshold. All three occupants escaped with minor injuries, while the aircraft sustained damage beyond repair. ## Official Findings and Probable Cause The official investigation determined that the probable cause of the incident was a double engine failure on final approach resulting from fuel exhaustion. The report attributed the fuel exhaustion to poor flight preparation by the pilot, who miscalculated the required fuel quantity for the distance between Geneva and Zurich and failed to make a planned fuel stop at Bern Airport.
