What happened
During a departure from an airfield situated within the Rostov region, an aircraft experienced a critical loss of lift immediately following liftoff. The incident occurred while the aircraft was in the initial climb phase of flight. Upon the failure to maintain altitude, the plane impacted the ground, resulting in the airframe being damaged beyond repair. Despite the severity of the impact, there were no casualties reported among those on board.
Findings
Investigation into the accident revealed that the crew failed to properly configure the aircraft for departure. Specifically, the failure to extend the flaps to the required setting for the takeoff procedure led to an aerodynamic stall at the moment of rotation.
