Narrative:
The Zlín Z-326M suffered an accident after landing at Robledillo de Mohernando Airport (LERM).

During a local flight with 2 occupants on board the passenger felt unwell, so the pilot returned to the aerodrome and landed. After this, and at the moment he was about to help the passenger out of the cabin, still with the engine running, the pilot inadvertently activated the throttle. As a result, the aircraft moved and impacted against the airfield fence, and the pilot fell from the wing, hitting the ground.

The aircraft sustained major damage, mainly affecting the propeller and the wings. The pilot suffered minor injuries.
