on

Date: Saturday, 14 December 2024
Location: La Axarquía-Leoni Benabu Airfield (LEAX), Vélez-Málaga, Málaga, Spain

A tragic accident occurred earlier today at the La Axarquía-Leoni Benabu Airfield in Vélez-Málaga, Andalusia, when a Bellanca 8KCAB Super Decathlon crashed during an aerobatic display. The sole occupant of the aircraft, the pilot, lost their life in the crash.

The aircraft, registered as EC-NSJ and operated by the Real Aeroclub de Málaga, was performing aerobatic maneuvers when it went down. Manufactured in 1978, the Super Decathlon is known for its agility and capability in aerobatic flight, but the exact circumstances leading to the accident remain unclear.

Emergency services responded promptly, but the pilot was pronounced dead at the scene. The aircraft sustained substantial damage and has been declared a total loss. Fortunately, there were no other casualties or injuries reported on the ground.

The accident occurred at approximately 12:28 local time, during the aircraft's maneuvering phase. The Bellanca had departed from and was scheduled to return to the same airfield.

Authorities have launched an investigation into the crash. While initial reports suggest the incident happened during an aerobatic routine, details about contributing factors, such as weather conditions or mechanical failure, are yet to be confirmed.
