The Piper PA-28-140 Cherokee collided with power line wires during takeoff and fell into the courtyard of a residential building near Ust-Kulom Airport, Komi, Russia.
The aircraft operated on a flight from Cheboksary to Troitsko-Pechorsk and had made a stop at Ust-Kulom.
Conclusion
The most probable cause of the accident with aircraft RA-2779G was the loss of engine power on take-off, after the aircraft had lifted off the ground, which did not provide a safe climb profile and resulted in the aircraft "slipping" and collision with obstacles on the take-off course.
The drop in engine power was a result of the destruction of carburettor floats during operation.
Contributing factors were:
- Failure to comply with the carburettor manufacturer's float replacement bulletin;
- failure to recognise the fact of non-compliance with the bulletin when the aircraft was inspected during the SLG.
The crew chose the takeoff direction without taking into account the risks associated with the presence of obstacles on the takeoff course, which prevented a safe forced landing in the event of engine failure.
