The Tecnam P96 Golf aircraft, registration EC-FO7, suffered an engine shutdown while flying back to Los Garranchos Airfield after a local flight.

As a result of the accident, the aircraft suffered significant damage to the landing gear, propeller, front fuselage and engine.
Both the pilot and passenger were unharmed.
Causes/contributing factors
The investigation has determined that the probable cause of the accident was the emergency landing carried out following an engine shutdown caused by a broken engine connecting rod.
