Narrative:
Crashed after power loss. Pilot Cap Ramón Galván ejected. Se realizaba un vuelo de comprobación, por haberse cambiado el motor izquierdo. Se lo detuvo en vuelo y reencendió sin novedades y durante tránsitos para aterrizaje el motor izquierdo se apagó y no pudo ser puesto en bandera, por lo que no se pudo contrarrestar los esfuerzos laterales y a unos 60 pies de altura el piloto se eyectó, salvando su vida.
