On a special flight for the German airliner Sachsische Luftfahrt Service, the single engine was carrying 9 pax and 2 pilots. During course, while flying at 1'500 feet, the engine lost power and the crew elected to carry out an emergency landing near a sport center. On landing in a field, the aircraft skidded 200 meters before stopping by trees. Nobody was hurt but the aircraft was written off. The German authorities said that a red light came on in the cockpit few seconds before the engine lost power due to fuel problem but both pilots did not see the red light.
