What happened

While maintaining an altitude between 150 and 200 meters, the pilot lost control of the aircraft type (unspecified model). The plane descended rapidly, striking a steppe area located approximately 7 km west of Yenotayevka at a velocity of 250 km/h. The impact resulted in the total destruction of the airframe. There was 1 fatality recorded, involving the pilot who was the only person on board during the flight.
