AIB Ghana to release findings on fatal Tema Microlight Aircraft crash today
The Aircraft Accident and Incident Investigation and Prevention Bureau is expected to publicly release its report today, May 26, on the deadly microlight aircraft crash that occurred in Tema earlier this year.
Commissioner of the Bureau, John Mmeb Kunyan Wumborti, says investigations into the incident have been completed and the agency is ready to present its findings to the public.
Speaking ahead of the release, Mr. Wumborti stated that investigators carried out a comprehensive examination into the circumstances surrounding the accident to determine the cause of the crash.
According to him, the Bureau gathered extensive factual information and conducted detailed analysis as part of the investigation process.
He further disclosed that the report will include safety recommendations aimed at preventing similar aviation incidents in the future.
Mr. Wumborti noted, however, that some documents required for the investigation, including autopsy reports, were delayed, although the Bureau decided to proceed with the release of the report.
The microlight aircraft, with registration number 9G-ADV, was travelling from Ho to Accra on March 16 when it crashed near a school park in Tema Community One.
Witnesses reported that the aircraft caught fire moments after impact.
Emergency personnel were deployed to the scene to manage the fire and conduct rescue and recovery operations, but both occupants onboard, who were brothers, lost their lives in the crash.
