A Beechcraft 58P Baron flying from Príbram Airport (LKPM) to Karlovy Vary Airport (KLV/LKKV) crashed in difficult terrain southeast of Balkova, Tis u Blatna, Pilsen region, and caught fire.
The pilot (+76), hotel Richmond owner in Karlovy Vary, perished and the aircraft was destroyed.
According to a representative of the Air Accidents Investigation Institute, it was ruled out that the plane exploded in mid-air. For some reason, it spiraled and fell at high speed into the forest, breaking into several thousand pieces that were scattered far and wide, and there were several small fires in the debris.
