Few minutes later, the left engine lost power and the captain realized it was not possible to reach the airbase so he decided to attempt an emergency landing in a field located 1,5 mile short of runway. The airplane slid for several yards and came to rest. All four crew members were uninjured but the airplane was written off.

After completing a short local training flight, the crew was returning to his base at Bel-Air NAS in Dakar.
