What happened
Following the completion of its landing, a single-engine aircraft experienced a loss of directional control and drifted toward the right side of the runway. During this excursion, the right main landing gear made contact with a ditch, resulting in the gear being completely detached from the airframe. The impact caused the aircraft to settle on its belly.
As a result of the collision with the terrain, the aircraft sustained damage that rendered it a total loss. Despite the severity of the impact, all seven occupants were able to exit the wreckage. There were no fatalities reported, and the individuals involved sustained only minor injuries.
Findings
- The aircraft's right main gear was torn from the structure after striking an earthen ditch.
- The incident occurred during the landing phase of flight.
