What happened
The incident occurred while the pilot was conducting a training flight departing from Digby Airport. During the maneuvering phase of the exercise, specifically while executing a turn, the aviator lost control of the aircraft. This loss of control caused the plane to dive steeply toward the ground. The crash site was located in Boothby Graffoe, approximately 6 km north of RAF Waddington. As the sole occupant on board, the pilot was killed in the accident.
Findings
The source material indicates that the immediate sequence leading to the impact involved a loss of control during a turn. No further investigative details or specific mechanical failures are provided in the available records.
