THE PILOT OF THE GLASS FUGEL GLIDER REPORTED NO MALFUNCTIONS WITH THE AIRPLANE PRIOR TO THE CRASH AFTER ATTEMPTING A CIRCLE TO LAND MANEUVER. THE PILOT INDICATED HE MISJUDGED HIS ALTITUDE WITH THE UP HILL SLOPING RUNWAY. DURING THE CIRCLING MANEUVER HE FORGOT TO FLY THE AIRPLANE AND ALLOWED THE AIRSPEED TO GET TOO LOW WHICH RESULTED IN AN INFLIGHT LOSS OF CONTROL AND SPIN INTO THE GROUND.
