Taking off from Olomouc airport, the plane made an emergency landing at a backup airport with fuel left over. The landing was made at high speed (430km/h) and the flaps and parachute were not used. The high speed caused the aircraft to spin off the runway twice, overrun and catch fire. The pilot ejected at Salem Ohram Abughrara, Libya, but died on the spot from the injuries he sustained. A subsequent investigation found approximately 100 litres of fuel in the fuel tank.
