On 19 May 2024, a Tecnam P2600T aircraft was being operated on a flight from Salakanagara Tanjung Lesung airfield, Banten, Indonesia to Pondok Cabe Airport, Jakarta, Indonesia, with 3 people on board. At 1344 local time, on approach to Pondok Cable Airport at an altitude of 1,000 ft, the pilot declared a MAYDAY. Shortly after, the aircraft collided with terrain near a main road. All occupants were fatally injured.
The Indonesian National Transportation Safety Committee (NTSC) is investigating this occurrence.
NTSC has requested assistance from the ATSB to recover data from a damaged GPS unit. To facilitate this support and to provide the appropriate protections for the information, the ATSB appointed an accredited representative in accordance with paragraph 5.23 of the International Civil Aviation Organization Annex 13 and commenced an investigation under the Australian Transport Safety Investigation Act 2003.
The ATSB has completed its work recovering the GPS data. A copy of the data and a report detailing the work undertaken by the ATSB was provided to the NTSC on 19 July 2024.
Any enquiries relating to the investigation should be directed to NTSC.
