The private plane was in final approach of the runway 08 of EDFE. The aircraft impacted an asparagus field in Erzhausen under unknown circumstances and was destroyed by the post-crash fire, the wreckage was scattered over 20 meters, and the 3 occupants, one pilot and 2 passengers, Russian national, received fatal injuries.
One of the occupants was Natalia Fileva, the Co-owner of S7 Airlines and one of Russia's richest women.
Conclusions
The accident was caused by the pilot steering the airplane during a turn in low altitude in an uncontrolled flight attitude, the airplane then banked over the wing and impacted the ground in a spinning motion.
Contributing factors:
- The decision of the pilot to conduct a non-standard approach to runway 08 without visual contact with the runway and contrary to the SOP and to continue the unstabilised approach.
- The complex airspace structure surrounding Frankfurt-Egelsbach Airfield
- The late recognition of the airport and the pilot’s decision for an inappropriate manoeuvre close to the ground.
- The insufficient attention distribution of the pilot in combination with the missing stall warning of the airplane.
