The twin engine aircraft was making a flight for the Royal Australian Navy with specialist on board. After takeoff from runway 24, while climbing at 100 feet, the pilot called the air traffic controller to inform that the right engine stopped. Immediately, the pilot received the authorization to return to the airport but few minutes later, the aircraft crashed in a wooded area located 300 meters short of runway 12. A passenger died on the crash site and a second passenger died 85 days later. All other occupants were seriously injured.
