Circumstances:
While taxiing at Frankfurt-Main Airport, the pilot-in-command lost control of the airplane that collided with a fence and ground lights marking construction work before coming to rest. The right wing was seriously damaged and a tank was punctured, causing 500 liters of fuel to leak on the ground. All 41 occupants were evacuated safely while the aircraft was damaged beyond repair.
