Aircraft on the NTSB record: Elan/Glaser Dirks DG-300 · serial DG-300
The pilot's misjudgment of distance/altitude on final approach which resulted in an undershoot of the runway, and an in-flight collision with a embankment. A factor was the dirt bank/rising terrain.
Aircraft on the NTSB record: Elan Glaser Dirks DG-300 ELAN · serial 3E-117
the pilot misjudged his planned approach by selecting a touchdown point close to the runway's approach end that did not provide sufficient clearance to safely maneuver when forcast turbulence and downdrafts were encountered. The pilot's early extension of spoilers was a factor in this accident.
