On a training flight, the amphibious plane crashed into a reservoir and sunk. Damage to aircraft was severe, and the two occupants died.
Although no flight recorder was installed on the accident aircraft, the SD card of the onboard G1000 avionic system was recovered and permitted CAAC investigators to reconstruct the path and attitude of the accident flight. Improper response by the crew to crosswind while trying to land caused the aircraft to impact the water and flip over, according to the final report.
