Narrative:
The aircraft was ferried from San Jorge Airfield (Santa Fe) to Gobernador Garmendia (Tucumán), Argentina.
A refueling stop was made at Bandera (Santiago del Estero).
Given the strong headwind another stopover had to be made. The place selected for this stopover was decided during the flight: a field located north of the city of Matará, in the province of Santiago del Estero.
Once the refuelling was complete, the plane was ready for the final take-off to its destination. During the take-off run, a vehicle of the Police of the province of Santiago del Estero forced him to stop the manoeuvre. The pilot aborted the takeoff and in order to avoid an impact with the police vehicle, the aircraft swerved to the right.
On this last run, it hit a hole in the ground, which caused its landing gear to collapse.
