What happened
The aircraft was operating an en route flight from Trinidad to Todos Santos when the crew encountered operational issues. As a result, they executed an emergency landing at Aguas Negras, located near the Rio Sécure in the State of Beni. The float plane came to rest in a muddy field following this initial stop. Both pilots subsequently obtained assistance and managed to depart the site.
During the subsequent leg of the journey while approaching Colquiri, weather conditions deteriorated significantly. This led to the aircraft striking a mountain slope, resulting in the total destruction of the airframe. Both members of the flight crew sustained injuries in the impact, with one pilot suffering more serious harm than the other.
