What happened
On an unspecified date, an aircraft departed from a roadway in the Onikeyevo region of the Kirovograd oblast. Shortly after the aircraft left the ground, the engine ceased to function properly. This loss of power led to an aerodynamic stall, causing the aircraft to descend rapidly and strike the ground near a local farmstead.
Upon impact, the aircraft caught fire. Despite the intensity of the post-crash flames, which ultimately destroyed the airframe, all three occupants—consisting of the pilot, the co-pilot, and one passenger—managed to exit the wreckage. There were zero fatalities and zero injuries reported among the crew and the passenger, who was identified as the owner of the nearby farm.
Findings
Preliminary observations suggest that the flight may have been operating without valid authorization, as the aircraft's Certificate of Airworthiness had expired on 26 April 2008. The primary factor in the accident was the engine failure occurring during the initial climb phase.
