Narrative:The pilot, alone on board, took off from runway 24 of the Berck-sur-Mer aerodrome for a local flight. Witnesses on the ground indicated that after the rotation, they saw the canopy of the ultralight open. After pitching down and then pitching up, the ultralight stabilized in level flight. It then began a left turn and its left bank increased.
The pilot lost control of the ultralight, which collided with the ground 710 m from the threshold of runway 24 and 190 m left of the runway centerline, facing the hangars.
The following factors may have contributed to the loss of control :
- The pilot's surprise in the face of this unexpected situation.
- A degradation of the ULM's aerodynamic performance and controllability.
