A Dyn'Aéro MCR01 ULC crashed in the waters of the Calandkanaal, near Hoek van Holland.
Parts of the wreckage were found, but search and rescue workers were unable to find the two occupants for many days.
The body of the Norwegian pilot (58) was found at 17 june and two days later the body of his son (15).
According to the filed flight plan, the pilot planned to fly the aircraft from Norway to France. During the second leg, the aircraft crossed Dutch airspace. Before the aircraft left the Eelde Terminal Manoeuvring Area (TMA), the Eelde tower controller advised the pilot to contact Dutch MIL Info on frequency 132.350 MHz. The pilot read the frequency
back as 135.350 MHz, which was not corrected by the tower controller. This was the last radio communication received from the pilot. The pilot did not establish contact with Dutch MIL Info, or any other Dutch air traffic service provider later on. For the remainder of the flight, the aircraft was visible to the different air traffic service providers on the radar, but with unknown identity and therefore no flight plan displayed, as the aircraft did not carry a Mode S transponder. The radar track of the aircraft was lost near Rotterdam at 17.58 hours. Approximately 35 minutes later, parts of aircraft wreckage were found floating on the water of the Beer Canal and Caland Canal.
The cause of the accident could not be determined. Based on available radar data, the accident occurred at approximately 17.58:30 hours. Radar data confirm that altitude variations occurred during the last part of the flight before the aircraft descended from 800 feet above mean sea level (AMSL) and impacted the water.
Weather reported at Rotterdam Airport, 24 km east of the crash site (accident time likely around 1558Z 1758LT):
