A Galin2 aircraft, registration EC-XPP, hit the ground west of runway 15-33 at the Coscojuela Aerodrome in Sobrarbe, Spain.
When arriving at the destination aerodrome the aircraft did not join the traffic circuit of runway 15, which is to the east, but overhead runway 33 with a northwest course at very low altitude and speed. Given the unusual manoeuvre, the pilot was asked by radio if he intended to perform the traffic circuit of track 15, to which he replied in the affirmative. However, a few seconds later, the aircraft impacted the ground west of runway 15-33 of the aerodrome, about 920 and 560 m from thresholds 33 and 15 respectively.
The sole occupant of the aircraft died on the spot and the aircraft was destroyed.
