During the initial climb to cruise altitude the number one engine suffered a failure due to oil exhaustion.{{citation needed|date=July 2013}} The crew was unable to feather the propeller and was forced to attempt an emergency landing in rough terrain. {{citation needed|date=July 2013}}The plane was destroyed in the attempt, killing all 22 passengers and six crew on board.[2] InvestigationThe Government of Guatemala initiated a full investigation. The results of this investigation are as follows: The aircraft had undergone maintenance shortly before the flight. In order to perform this maintenance, it was necessary to disconnect a high-pressure oil hose from the engine cylinders. The investigation found that it had not been correctly reattached, thus starving the engine of oil.[2] References1. ^United Kingdom Civil Aviation Authority CAP479 World Airline Accident Summary Volume 2 Page 16/77 (ICAO Summary 8/81) 2. ^1 2 {{Cite web|url=https://aviation-safety.net/database/record.php?id=19770427-0|title=ASN Aircraft accident Convair CV-440 TG-ACA Guatemala City|last=Ranter|first=Harro|website=aviation-safety.net|access-date=2017-03-29}} External links
