A Robin DR.400/140B Dauphin 4 crashed in Isère, Belledonne mountains, Pas de la coche (1900 m), France.
During the flight in a mountainous area, the pilot, accompanied by two passengers entered a valley at an altitude below the crest line.
In addition, the environment, in particular the presence of power lines in the center of the valley, forced the realization of a U-turn. Faced with the need to gain altitude to enable her to cross the pass, the pilot gradually increased the attitude of the airplane. This action resulted in a gradual decrease in the aircraft's climb speed and performance. Arriving at the pass at the end of the valley, realizing that she would not be able to cross it, the pilot probably tried to turn around to the left during which she lost control of the aircraft.
All three occupants were killed and the aircraft was destroyed.
