Shortly after takeoff, while in initial climb, the aircraft stalled and crashed. The passenger and the pilot were injured while the captain was killed. The crew was performing a cargo flight with a load of 604 racing pigeons. Probable cause (official findings): It was determined that the total weight of the aircraft exceeded the MTOW of 202 kilos at the time of the accident, which caused the aircraft to stall after rotation.
