Circumstances:
The crew was returning to Europe after taking part to the AirVenture airshow in Oshkosh. Following a fuel stop in Goose Bay, the crew continued to Narsarsuaq, Greenland. Approaching the southwest coast, the pilot sent a mayday message then ditched the airplane off the village of Qaqortoq, about 60 km southwest of Narsarsuaq. Both occupants found refuge in a dinghy and were rescued about 30 minutes later. The airplane sank.
