Narrative:The aircraft was en route between El Berriel Aerodrome (Gran Canaria) and La Gomera Airport during a private flight intended to increase the pilot's flight experience. The flight plan also included a landing and take-off manoeuvre at Tenerife North Airport.
The aircraft was flying over the sea, a few miles north of the Gran Canaria coastline, when its engine failed. The crew contacted the control centre by radio and declared an emergency due to engine failure.
Shortly afterwards, the aircraft landed in front of El Altillo beach.
The two crew members were able to leave the aircraft and swam to shore, where they were assisted by passers-by who happened to be in the area.
It is considered the accident occurred due to insufficient lubrication of the connecting rod in cylinder no.1, which led to an in-flight engine failure and forced the crew to make an emergency landing on water.
The investigation has determined that the following factor contributed to the accident:
- The deficient oil-level verification procedure used by the ATO personnel operating the aircraft.
