On September 10, 2006, at 12:55 UTC (Universal Coordinated Time: 14:55 Central European Summer Time), a Robinson R-22 Beta, Austrian registered OE-XPJ, owned and piloted by the accident pilot, was destroyed when it impacted wooded terrain under unknown circumstances near St. Florian, Austria. Day visual meteorological conditions prevailed at the time of the accident. The flight instructor and student pilot were fatally injured. The flight originated from Lohninger, Austria.
Probable Causes
It is highly probable that the accident was due to an engine shutdown.
The cause of the engine shutdown could not be verified. An accident-free emergency landing or autorotation was not possible due to the wooded area and the flight altitude being too low for such a manoeuvre.
