The take-off took place at 13:16 using the engine. The recorded flight data shows that the aircraft was first heading towards Lake Biel, above which a few turns were made.
The flight continued over the crests of the Jura by the beam of Neuchâtel, then of Ste-Croix and Lac de Joux, where pilots turned back. Then the motor glider turned to the right towards the Côte de Châtel, approaching the Montricher aerodrome and began to turn left.
A pilot towing gliders from Montricher this afternoon noticed the glider in peril on the northwest side of the Côte de Châtel rotating in one direction and then in the other before disappearing in the trees with a nose-down attitude at 13:58. He attempted to locate the aircraft by flying over the forest and then returned to land in Montricher to give
the alarm.
Causes:
The accident was caused by a stall in a turbulent atmosphere during a turn near the ground that caused the motor glider to lose control of the ground.
