What happened
Shortly after departing from Voronovo, the crew of the aircraft encountered significant mechanical difficulties involving one of the engines. In an attempt to manage the situation, the pilot decided to maintain the current altitude. However, the aircraft was unable to sustain its flight path and began a descent.
During this uncontrolled descent, the aircraft struck a group of trees in a wooded region situated approximately 7.5 km from the departure airfield. The impact was followed by a large-scale fire that consumed the wreckage. Despite the severity of the crash and the resulting flames, both pilots managed to evacuate the wreckage without sustaining any injuries.
Findings
The investigation into the incident focused on the mechanical failure experienced during the initial climb phase. The primary factor identified was an engine failure occurring for reasons that have not yet been determined.
