After dropping four parachutists, the engine failed during descent.
Subsequently, the aircraft collided with an overhead power line and crashed into the roof of a residential building.
The pilot was injured and the aircraft destroyed. Also the electricity of 50.000 people was cut off.
Conclusions:
The accident was caused by the pilot experiencing an engine failure due to an interrupted fuel supply, and the aircraft colliding with obstacles during the subsequent emergency landing.
The following factors contributed to the accident:
- Non-compliance with the manual requirements for the descent procedure with the low fuel quantity present in the wing tanks
- Attempts to start the engine without first selecting and approaching an emergency landing area
- Too low an altitude at the time of engine failure to safely reach the airport in a glide
