Perte de contrôle lors du décollage, collision avec le sol
Responsible entity
Investigation progression
Closed
The pilot took off from a private field, started a right turn, lost control and hit the ground.
The investigation was unable to determine the causes of the loss of control during take-off.
The following factors may have contributed to this:
- Possible turbulence or downdrafts in the vicinity of the forest that the pilot may have encountered during take-off and that could have caused the right wingtip to close.
- The low height at which the loss of control occurred prevented the pilot from regaining control of the wing.
- The position of the windsock, which was located at the initial take-off point and relatively far from the forest, probably did not alert the pilot to possible turbulence phenomena at the edge of the forest.
