| Confidence Rating: |  Accident investigation report completed and information captured |
The pilot, accompanied by his two passengers, took off from the Saint-Cyr-l'École Aerodrome at around 09:20 am for a VFR flight bound for Cassagnes.
At approximately 12:20 pm, while the aircraft was following a north-south course at FL55, witnesses saw the pilot alternately roll over to the right and left, and left in a left turn. He then adopted a very strong nose down attitude before violently striking the ground on the side of a hill.
The investigation did not identify the causes or circumstances of the accident.
However, given the elements analyzed, it appears that one can reasonably exclude a scenario involving a major failure of a mechanical system of the aircraft, a fuel failure, or a collision in flight.
