Narrative:
The flight with SE-ERU was a navigation flight from Älvsbyn. During climb, the engine malfunctioned due to an almost empty fuel tank. After switching tanks, the engine still ran rough. The pilot returned for landing, but low altitude and speed caused a collision with trees, resulting in major aircraft damage. The pilot was uninjured.
