Circumstances:
On final approach to Lucapa, the crew encountered technical problems and was forced to shut an engine down for unknown reason. After touchdown, the aircraft went out of control and veered off runway to the left. While contacting rough terrain, the aircraft lost its undercarriage and came to rest on its belly with severe damages to both wings, engines and fuselage. Three passengers were slightly injured.
