Narrative:
The aircraft took off from the Belo Horizonte-Carlos Prates Airport, MG (SBPR) on a flight to Serra do Cipó Aerodrome (SNLG), at about 17:45.
After about 15 minutes of flight, the aircraft presented oscillations of heading and altitude, and started descending, without communication with the control agencies, until it collided with the ground in a mountainous area, in the municipality of Taquaraçú de Minas. The aircraft was destroyed. The pilot suffered fatal injuries.

Contributing factors:
- Unconsciousness – undetermined.
It is likely that the pilot was affected by an IAM [Acute Myocardial Infarct] during the flight, considering the medical history, which placed him in a high-risk condition for this type of illness.
This hypothesis is reinforced by the fact that, before the impact, there was a change in the piloting pattern identified in the radar images, with variations of the heading, altitude and speed, outside the desired profile and without any answers to the questions of the control agencies.
