Narrative:During a navigation flight to the Villefranche-de-Panat ULM airfield, the ULM pilot decided to make a low-height passage over the Saint-Martin-de-Londres aerodrome. He knew this aerodrome well. He chose to pass on a path in the immediate vicinity of the hangars and any people on the ground present. During this maneuver, the right wing of his ULM collided with a tree and part of the wing became detached. The pilot probably attempted to land on runway 12. During the right turn, the pilot lost control of the ULM which struck the ground near the runway threshold.
The portion of the trajectory in a straight line and uphill seems to indicate that the pilot was still in control of the ULM.
It could not be determined whether the loss of control was related to a steep turn to return to the runway, a degradation of the aerodynamic characteristics of the ULM caused by the loss of the right aileron and part of the wing or the conjunction of these two elements.
