Crash du DG-1000T lors de l'approche à Hambourg Boberg entraîne des blessures graves

Hamburg Boberg, Germany DG Flugzeugbau DG-1000T

Le 4 avril 2009, un DG Flugzeugbau DG-1000T s'est écrasé lors de la phase d'approche à l'aérodrome de Hambourg Boberg. Le planeur, avec un pilote et un élève à bord, a subi un décrochage en effectuant un virage peu prononcé à basse altitude. Les deux occupants ont subi des blessures graves et l'appareil a été détruit. L'enquête n'a révélé aucune défaillance technique de l'appareil, et les conditions météorologiques étaient favorables pour le vol à vue. L'incident a été attribué à l'entrée du planeur en décrochage lors de l'approche finale.

  1. Winch launch circuit: After a winch launch to about 440 m, the DG-1000T flew a local circuit in the southwest pattern area with height steadily decreasing.
  2. Height lost in circles: The pilot flew additional circles in the southwest pattern area, reducing altitude to about 200 m and then further while still about 1 km southwest of the launch point.
  3. Low approach altitude: By the time the aircraft reached the position for joining the final approach, altitude had decreased to around 100–125 m, requiring a shortened landing pattern.
  4. Slow, slipping turn: From roughly 100 m height the pilot initiated a shallow, slipping left turn toward final approach at noticeably low airspeed.
  5. Stall in turn: During the shallow left turn at low speed the glider exceeded its critical angle of attack, stalled, and abruptly dropped out of the turn.
  6. Crash - serious injury: The glider impacted a fallow field just east of the airfield with a steep nose-down attitude, seriously injuring both occupants and destroying the aircraft.
