Probable cause of the accident
The accident occurred when the aircraft engine lost power in flight and failed to restart despite a few attempts by the Student Pilot. Thereafter, SOP was followed, and while approaching for an emergency landing, the student pilot could not glide the aircraft properly and the aircraft collided with trees. The investigation has established that an engine component failed, but conclusive evidence to establish the serviceability of components was lost due to damage to engine components.
