Departing on runway 15 with a charter flight, engine failure led to loss of control. The aircraft slewed across grass and a taxiway before coming to rest, minus undercarriage, a few feet away from the hangars. With the fuselage mainly intact the 28 passengers (Rugby team) and 3 crew escaped with minor injuries.
