A Cirrus SR22 GTS X G3 crashed into a mountain in Leutasch, Tyrolia. There was a post impact fire.
All three occupants were killed.

Probable causes
- Loss of control due to a stall during a reversal turn in the mountains (Loss of Control - Inflight)
Probable factors
- Leaving the known and cleared visual flight path and entering the Leutascher Platt without sufficient safety margins and turning possibilities (navigation error).
- Low flight altitude above ground of approx. 93 m when the stall occured.
- Low airspeed of approx. 95 kt when the stall occurred.
- It cannot be excluded that the 10 kt strong westerly wind favored the stall.
