Narrative:
Written off (destroyed) 6 November 2006, when crashed at Centena di Ferriere, near Piacenza, Italy (at approximate Coordinates: 44°39′N 9°30′E). The aircraft was performing a night VFR flight from Valetta (Malta) to the airport of Milan-Linate, in northern Italy. During flight, while approaching Piacenza in good weather conditions, the twin engine aircraft crashed near a forest and was destroyed upon impact. Both occupants - pilot and one passenger -were killed.

According to a rough translation from Italian into English of the preliminary ANSV accident report:

"The National Flight Safety Agency (ANSV) said it has opened a technical investigation to investigate the causes and reconstruct the exact dynamics of the incident this morning at 4.00 pm local time in Centena di Ferriere (Piacenza) , the Piper PA-31T aircraft, registration I-POMO, which resulted in the deaths of the two occupants. An ANSV investigator is on the way. As of today, the aircraft was taken off from Malta to Milan Linate.

The ANSV reports that from the earliest evidence of the technical investigation it emerged that the PA-31T aircraft, I-POMO, precipitated in Piacenza yesterday, November 6, was in contact with Milan air traffic control, under radar control and had been allowed to initiate descent into Linate Airport. At about 10,000 feet in height, the aircraft disappeared from the radar screen and no longer responded to calls from traffic control. It should be emphasised that the aircraft in question, in compliance with current legislation, does not have data recording equipment (FDR, CVR)."

Ferriere (Piacentine: Al Frér) is a comune (municipality) in the Province of Piacenza in the Italian region Emilia-Romagna, located about 150 kilometres (93 miles) west of Bologna and about 45 kilometres (28 miles) southwest of Piacenza, in the Val Nure of the Ligurian Appennines.
