What happened
During the takeoff phase of flight, the aircraft completed its rotation at a speed of 220 km/h following a ground roll of 1,700 meters. Almost immediately after leaving the runway at an altitude of approximately 2 meters, the second and third engines experienced a power drop of roughly 20%. Within a few seconds, the first engine also underwent a power reduction of about 10%.
This simultaneous loss of thrust caused the aircraft to bank heavily to the right, reaching a 60-degree angle. The plane subsequently lost altitude and impacted a field situated 1,800 meters beyond the runway threshold. The impact resulted in a post-crash fire. The accident resulted in 27 fatalities and left four passengers seriously injured.
Findings
Investigators were unable to definitively identify why all three engines experienced a simultaneous loss of power. This lack of certainty was attributed to the absence of physical evidence, the lack of functional recording equipment, and the fact that the crew members involved in the accident did not survive to provide testimony.
