During the flight, due to coking of the oil, the engine stopped at 2,500 meters, which could not be restarted even after several attempts due to the wedging of the stationary and rotating parts. The pilot ejected at 1,600 meters at a speed of approximately 500 km/h.
Lt. Col. György Schadl was not injured.
