The aircraft took off from the Água Azul-PA farm (SNFA) with the aim of landing at the Itaituba city airfield (SBIH), with three people on board. The takeoff was from runway 13. In order to approach the destination, the correct thing to do would be to make a left turn, ascending to cruising level; however, the aircraft turned right, losing altitude, until it collided with trees in the forest in that region, subsequently catching fire. The aircraft was a total loss and its three occupants died at the scene.
