L-132/24

Serious incident with a Cessna-172R southwest of Örebro Airport

The pilot was supposed to fly the aircraft (SE-LGL) from Örebro Airport to Karlskoga Airport. At cruising altitude, the pilot lost control of the aircraft when the autopilot suddenly disengaged and the aircraft rapidly increased its angle of attack, resulting in a stall. After the pilot deactivated the autopilot's circuit breaker, control of the aircraft was regained.

The pilot landed at Örebro Airport after the incident. No person was injured during the event.
