Narrative:
The pilot, Lt. Zoltán Kiss executed the interception in an orderly manner, and then caught up to the target, and then executed two ascending spins. After completing these, approx. At 1500 meters, he started a half-overlap, from which he could no longer get out. He ejected from the plane, which was falling at an angle of more than 80°, at 500 meters, but the height was not sufficient for the parachute to deploy at this speed.
