During soaring from Fagernes Airport Leirin (ENFG), the pilot allowed himself to glide too low
over the terrain to be able to return to the airport. The pilot inadequate education and training of
soaring and off-airfield landing, led him to be unable to reach the airport and not to prepare himself
for an off-airport landing while he still had sufficient height above the ground. These errors in
training and judgement resulted in that LN-GIR crashed in a stream and was totally destroyed,
while the pilot himself was unhurt. AIBN has made two safety recommendations to Valdres Flying
Club.
