A Piper PA-31T Cheyenne II, D-ILRA, impacted a street in München, Germany, and burst into flames.
The aircraft was operating on a training flight. During the approach to runway 07, an engine failure was simulated. The pilot lost control of the aircraft at a low altitude, which spun into the ground. The aircraft slid across an intersection and struck a city bus, which swerved into the side of a McDonald's restaurant.
All three occupants of the aircraft were killed. A total of six people died on the ground, and three more succumbed to their injuries in the weeks following the accident.
