CONCLUSION
The investigation could not explain the pilot's flight path and the circumstances that led to the loss of control.
The low torque recorded during the engine examination may indicate a loss of power after take-off and an attempt by the pilot to return to the aerodrome. However, neither the examination nor the account of the facts by witness No. 2 can confirm this scenario.
The loss of control at low altitude did not allow the pilot to regain control of the ULM before the collision with the ground.
