At approximately 1100 hours on Wednesday 7 June 1995 a Fletcher FU24A-954, ZK-EMU, collided with the face of a hill during a sowing run and caught fire. The aircraft was destroyed, and the pilot lost his life in the accident. Pilot incapacitation was the probable cause of this accident. The incapacitation was sufficient to cause loss of situational awareness and loss of aircraft control at a critical phase of flight. No safety issues were identified as a result of this investigation.
